OKLAHOMA CITY (KFOR) - Oklahomans who have a taste for small game are gearing up for the season opener beginning May 15 through January 31.
The Oklahoma Wildlife Department (OWD) says squirrel hunting is a great way to introduce someone new to the woods!
Oklahoma has two species of squirrels that are legal to hunt: the eastern fox squirrel and the eastern gray squirrel, according to the Oklahoma Wildlife officials.
Both species diet on acorns, hickory nuts, insects, berries, seeds and bark.
