Question: My son and I are new to rabbit hunting. For possession limits, will my 16-year-old son and I each be able to have 10 in possession (20 total) as long as we mark which animals we each harvested?

Answer: If hunting for brush, cottontail or pygmy rabbits or varying (snowshoe) hares, bag and possession limits (for each of you) in the aggregate of all species is five per day, 10 in possession. Remember, that's no more than five rabbits for each of you per day, and no more than 10 in possession after two days. No need to mark which animals belong to whom as long as you keep each bag separate. However, if you don't remain together, one person should not be in possession of two limits. If hunting for jack, black-tailed or white-tailed rabbits, the season is open all year and there are no bag or possession limits.
