When does hunting season start in Texas this year? [Video]

TEXAS, USA — It’s almost time for Texans to return to the hunting grounds. 

Starting Sept. 1, hunting season begins for many animals throughout the state, and this year there are some new rules and regulations. For many animals–like squirrel and javelinas–hunting season never ends. But for some of the most popular hunting targets–like whitetail deer, dove, and duck/teal–the season opener depends on where you hunt and what weapon you’re hunting with. 

Here’s a breakdown on when you can begin hunting.
