Short answer
Mule deer hunting rules vary by region, management unit, dates and animal class. Research the exact area rather than relying on a province-wide season summary, and verify the current open-season table before hunting.
Why are management units important?
Season dates and restrictions can change across management-unit boundaries, so the correct MU is the foundation of any mule deer season check.
