During the Early Firearm season (Oct. 8-16), firearms deer hunting is closed on all department-owned or -managed properties in Unit 19. During the Archery Extended Whitetail Antlerless season (Jan. 9-31, 2012), all deer hunting, including archery, is closed on department-owned or -managed properties in Unit 19.

Urban deer management units were created to focus greater deer harvest in the Kansas City-to- Topeka corridor. The boundaries of adjacent units 9, 10, 11 and 14 were realigned to create the urban unit. In addition to regular seasons (muzzleloader-only, archery, firearm, and extended), Unit 19 will host an early firearms season (Oct. 9-17, 2010), as well as an antlerless-only white-tailed archery season (Jan. 10– 31, 2011). Unit 10a is Fort Leavenworth and is open to Fort Leavenworth personnel only.
