❓ Hunting in Maryland — FAQ
Is hunting allowed in Maryland state parks?
Hunting in Maryland state parks is limited — it is typically restricted to specific parks, managed hunts, quotas, or special permits rather than open across the park system. Maryland state parks allow hunting only in designated, posted areas set by the park superintendent (COMAR 08.07.06.03, as of October 2026). Always verify current regulations with the official agency before hunting.
