WYOMING — Today is the deadline to submit applications for many fall hunts in Wyoming for residents and nonresidents. Applications must be submitted on the Wyoming Game and Fish Department website before midnight.
Applications are due online for deer, antelope, sandhill crane, beaver, fall turkey, residents elk and springer and glendo special pheasant hunts.
“Don’t wait until the last minute to apply for licenses. If you have questions, we want to help you,” said Jennifer Doering, Game and Fish license section manager.
For big game species, turkey and crane, maps are available via Wyoming Game and Fish Hunt Planner.
“The hunt planner maps are the best you will find anywhere. These are maps made from Game and Fish data, so if we make a change to an access area or hunt area boundary, it is updated here first,” said Sara DiRienzo, department public information officer.
In addition to the hunt area maps, each area also has details about topography and how easy the land is to access. Other public hunting locations are marked with points for the Game and Fish wildlife habitat management areas, walk-in and hunter management areas.
“The hunt planner gives hunters an informed edge when applying for a license and strategizing their hunting trips,” said DiRienzo. “The updates we make to this tool are a direct result of comments and suggestions from the public on information they need to plan their hunts.”
All applications must be made online by midnight MDT on May 31. For those who may not have access to a computer or need assistance applying, Game and Fish has computer stations at each of the regional offices and at the Cheyenne Headquarters.
