TOPEKA -- Canada goose hunters in Northeast Kansas are encouraged to dig out their decoys early this year. A resident Canada goose season will be open Sept. 1-13, with bag and possession limits of 3 and 6 respectively, around the cities of Topeka, Lawrence, and Kansas City.
Canada goose numbers in many cities increase to undesirable levels during much of the year. Providing additional harvest near these cities during the month of September, as allowed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, may assist with efforts to limit problem concentrations within the cities.
The boundaries of the September Canada goose hunt zone are as follows: that part of Kansas bounded by a line from the Kansas-Missouri state line west on K-68 to its junction with K-33, then north on K-33 to its junction with US-56, then west on US-56 to its junction with K-31, then west-northwest on K-31 to its junction with K-99, then north on K-99 to its junction with US-24, then east on US-24 to its junction with K-63, then north on K-63 to its junction with K-16, then east on K-16 to its junction with K-116, then east on K-116 to its junction with US-59, then northeast on US-59 to its junction with the Kansas-Missouri line, then south on the Kansas-Missouri line to its junction with K-68.
Contact the Department of Wildlife and Parks, (316) 672-5911, for a detailed map of these boundaries.
