Last update: 9 hours agoWildlife Management: Vermont’s regular deer season opens Saturday with a major change: hunters can harvest antlerless deer during the 16-day rifle season for the first time in 39 years. State officials expect 60,000 to 65,000 hunters and say the rule is intended to manage the herd.

State hatcheries are already at capacity, and federal officials have not explained how the facility’s work would be handled. First Snow: A nor’easter brought the season’s first snow to parts of Vermont, with wet, accumulating snow possible in higher elevations and risks of slick roads and power outages. Clean Energy: Vermont joined Massachusetts, Nova Scotia and other regional partners in seeking input on offshore wind development and potential power transmission to New England. Forest Economy: Vermont’s outdoor sector brings in an estimated $2.2 billion, but tariffs and the loss of a New York mill’s pulpwood market are adding pressure on local businesses and loggers.
