The daily bag limit is 10, the same for the fall/winter squirrel season, which is held from late August until March 15. There are five species of tree squirrels found in Tennessee. Two species, the southern flying squirrel and the northern flying squirrel, are protected and cannot be hunted. They are small, nocturnal, and rarely seen.
It is important for hunters to check individual wildlife management areas (WMAs) regulations, as some areas may have specific rules on hunting device types.
