This dashboard displays Harvest Information Program (HIP) registration data coarsely summarized by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS). HIP registration is required for all migratory bird hunters and has been underway since 1999. The USFWS uses HIP registrations to select a small proportion of hunters to participate in the National Migratory Bird Harvest Survey. The Harvest Survey gathers critical information about migratory bird harvest and hunter activity that is used to set hunting season dates, hunting zones, and bag limits. Hunters have about a 5% chance of being selected to take the survey, depending on the state.

HIP registration processing, sampling, mailing, and many other duties are conducted by the Migratory Bird Program Branch of Monitoring and Data Management.
