Colorado Parks and Wildlife recently selected 170,000 deer, elk and pronghorn license holders to participate in its 2025 Big Game Harvest survey, with a completion deadline of Feb. 17, according to a press release from the organization.

The survey data will be used by wildlife managers to inform deer, elk and pronghorn season and license setting for 2026 and beyond.

Selected hunters are being notified via email, text message, and/or live-operator phone call, granting them eligibility to complete the survey. These hunters must complete their survey before Feb. 17 by accessing the link in the email or text message, visiting survey.colobgharvest.com or by calling 1-855-924-4278. Only selected license holders are eligible to complete the survey, according to the release.

The survey will ask hunters where and when they hunted, whether they harvested, what they harvested and whether they were satisfied with the herd. They will also have the option to answer five additional questions on crowding, satisfaction and preferences for future herd management.

Reports from past seasons are available on Colorado Parks and Wildlife’s website. 2025 reports will be finalized and posted in March.
