*Summary of hunters by WMU is only based off the unit the hunter reported hunting in the most. Therefore, if a hunter hunted in more than one WMU they are only counted in the unit they hunted most. Summary of hunter days by WMU only captures the number of dates a hunter spent in the unit they hunted most.
