Idaho Fish and Game sold out its nonresident
regular deer and nonresident elk tags for the
first time in nearly a decade, and nonresident
hunters wanting whitetail tags better act. It's
the first time since 2008 all nonresident elk
tags have sold.
There is no limit on over-the-counter deer and
elk tags for residents.
On Nov. 1, about 500 nonresident whitetail tags
remained. Nonresident regular deer tags sold out
19 days sooner than last year. At current sales
rate, nonresident whitetail tags could be sold
out by mid November. You can see how many remain
unsold on the licenses and tags information
page.
For hunters looking forward to next year, 2018
nonresident deer and elk tags go on sale Dec. 1,
2017 for most deer and elk hunts.
Fish and Game has a limit of 15,500 nonresident
regular deer tags and 12,815 nonresident elk
tags as general season tags, available over the
counter. Those numbers have not changed in more
than 25 years. |
