All successful hunters during Vermont’s turkey hunting seasons must, by law, report their turkey within 48 hours to the Vermont Fish & Wildlife Department.
Online reporting systems offer hunters a quick, easy and convenient way to report their harvest while providing wildlife biologists with the data necessary for monitoring harvest trends and managing the wild turkey population. Hunters who prefer to report their turkeys in-person to a check station are welcome to continue doing so.

- Your Conservation ID# (Find you Conservation ID# on the upper left-hand corner of your license or look it up here)
-
Your Tag Number (If this is a landowner tag, enter “Landowner” into the form.)
