About this unit
AI-compiled · sourcedJennings County sits in the rolling hill country of south-central Indiana with a hunting character that blends wooded upland terrain with significant wetland habitat at Muscatatuck National Wildlife Refuge. The refuge, which spans into neighboring Jackson County, is one of Indiana's most productive public waterfowl destinations, drawing migratory ducks and geese during fall passage. Deer and turkey hunting on the wooded uplands rounds out a diverse hunting calendar.
