I just checked with the city. Hunting is legal within city limits, but NOT within city parks. Section 473.01 below addresses city parks specifically. Animal Control is aware of the dead deer and plans to remove it today. Section 473.01 c) Wild animals and birds. (1) Hunting. No person in a park shall hunt, molest, harm, frighten, kill, trap, chase, tease, shoot or throw missiles at any animal, reptile or bird; nor remove or have in his possession the young of any wild animal, or the eggs or nest, or young of any reptile or bird; nor collect, remove, have in his or her possession, give away, sell or offer to sell, or buy or offer to buy, or accept as a gift, any specimen alive or dead of any of the group of tree snails. Exception to the foregoing is made for snakes known to be poisonous.

We called 311 to alert them. Does anyone have any information about laws regarding hunting in public parks in Pittsburgh. Is this allowed? Thanks. Yael Schenker Sent from my iPhone
