Abstract:
The North Carolina Wildlife Commission's three-year experimental teal season concludes September 7-16, 2000. Bag limit is four teal per hunter per day. Whether the teal season becomes permanent depends upon hunter response. Some feel September is too early for waterfowl hunting. Continuation also depends on whether or not state guidelines for accidental and illegal harvest of other ducks are followed.

Abstract:
In the early part of the 20th-century, wealthy Northern sportsmen purchased large tracts of marshland in North Carolina for use as their own private hunting preserves. Farseeing individuals on the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and other groups made purchases of waterfowl areas for public use. Powell gives a short summary of each of the following duck hunting areas: Currituck Sound, Albemarle Sound, Pamlico Sound, Lake Mattamuskeet, Pamlico River, the Piedmont, and southeastern Coastal Plain. \r\n

Abstract:
Since 1971-72 there has been a moratorium on hunting redhead ducks in coastal North Carolina. Core Sound is a favorite wintering ground for them, and in January 1981, there were approximately 40,000 ducks there. While these ducks are numerous to hunt again, declining nesting habitats remain a problem.

Abstract:
Hunting for diving ducks in North Carolina's coastal regions has a rich history and a devoted following dating back to the 19th century. Despite an upward trend in the state, overall the population is declining. A definitive cause has yet to be found, but possible causes are habitat conditions on spring staging areas; contaminants; diseases; and hunting.
