Louisiana plans 2027 alligator hunt after results of first recreational season

(The Center Square) — Louisiana is planning a recreational alligator hunting season for 2027 after hunters harvested 1,817 animals during October’s statewide hunt, the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries announced Monday. The department reported 3,606 hunters participated in the season. Secretary Tyler Bosworth said in the announcement that plans for next year’s hunt are already in the works. For the 2026 season, the department’s published requirements set a $50 application fee for each hunting zone entered. Selected residents also needed a $25 alligator sports hunter license and basic hunting privileges. One zone application and a resident alligator license cost a combined $75. The Center Square was unsuccessful prior to publication getting confirmation from the department on total fee collections, the cost of administering the season, or fees for 2027. Those figures were not in the report. “With more than 3 million alligators in our state, this was an exciting opportunity for families to enjoy our Sportsman's Paradise,” Gov. Jeff Landry said in the department’s announcement. “I’d like to thank the Department of Wildlife and Fisheries for their great work. We can't wait to bring it back next year!” The season, the agency said, ran Oct. 1-31 across eight harvest
