WILDLIFE APP AVAILABLE
For nearly a quarter-million users of the Tennessee Wildlife Resources
Agency’s ‘On The Go 2.0’ smartphone app, finding a place in Tennessee to
hunt, fish, boat, and view wildlife has become easier than ever.
“We have put a lot of time into improving our app and we are happy to
announce it is now available and free to all who enjoy our outdoors and
want to learn more,” said Michael May, a TWRA assistant director.
“If you want to find a boat ramp, public land to hunt on, a convenient
way to check-in big game, places where you can view birds and other
wildlife, or keep up with news that pertains to the outdoors, this
updated version of our app offers unlimited sources of information,”
said May.
The upgrade is easier to navigate. Users can buy licenses, check big
game while afield, view interactive maps, apply for quota hunts, and
visit the TWRA website. One new feature includes a “Stay Connected
Page.” It provides easy access to TWRA’s social media, Tennessee
WildCast podcast, newsroom, outdoors and event calendar, and more.
Smartphone users should visit TWRA’s website to install the app at
www.tnwildlife.org. If the current version is already installed, Apple
users can easily upgrade via their app, while Android users will need to
uninstall their current app before uploading the new one.
Hunters will have the opportunity to report big game harvests while in
the field. There is also an interactive map to find TWRA wildlife
management areas, physical check station locations, and duck blind
locations.
Another special feature is the “Hunter’s Backpack” where hunter
education courses, a summary of hunting seasons, and full versions of
the agency hunting guides are available.
For anglers, “Fisherman’s Tacklebox” includes, fish identification,
interactive maps to find boat ramp and fish access information, fish
attractor locations, trout stocking locations, and trout stocking
schedules.
On the app’s boating page, the “Boating Locker” includes boat
regulations, safety checklists, boating education information,
navigational aids, and recommended boating equipment.
For wildlife watchers, there is information about where to view
watchable wildlife across the state.
