Dear Hunter:

Thank you for your interest in hunting in Wyoming. Our state is fortunate to have some of
the most impressive wildlife resources anywhere in the world. When you hunt in Wyoming,
you get to enjoy our wide-open spaces, snow-capped peaks, lush valleys, and roaring rivers.
You also get to pursue some of the wiliest game animals in North America including elk,
deer, antelope, and dozens of other wildlife species that make Wyoming a hunter’s paradise.
By hunting, you are helping us maintain these outstanding wildlife resources for future
generations to enjoy.

The North American Model of Wildlife Conservation is the most successful system of
wildlife management in the world. This model relies on some basic tenets, including public
ownership of the wildlife resource, regulations prohibiting commercialization of wildlife,
hunting and fishing opportunity for every citizen regardless of status, and science-based
management of the resource. Hunters have been the backbone of this model for over 100
years and will continue to be in the future.

One of the best ways to ensure the North American Model continues to be effective is to
maintain our hunting traditions. Nationwide, the number of hunters is declining. Even in
Wyoming, where hunting traditions are strong, we are losing hunters faster than we are
recruiting them. As a hunter, you can help change this trend. By simply introducing a child
to hunting, you can help get our youth and others involved in this cherished outdoor
tradition.

As a final comment, wherever you hunt in Wyoming, please respect the land—it provides the
habitats that support our magnificent wildlife populations. If you hunt on private land, please
respect the rights of the landowners and take a moment to thank them for the many
contributions they have made in providing wildlife habitat and hunting opportunity.

We look forward to seeing you in Wyoming. Good luck and good hunting.

Sincerely,

Steve K. Ferrell
Director

Question: Answer:
Can I apply for both a license and a No. You have to make the decision to apply for the drawing for the issuance of a license or make the
preference point for moose and/or decision to not be in the drawing this year, but rather to just earn a point. However, if you apply for a license
bighorn sheep? and are unsuccessful in the drawing, you will earn a preference point.
Question: Answer:
Can I apply for both a license and a You have three options. Option 1: You can apply for a license with a preference point option with the
preference point for elk, deer and/or opportunity to earn a preference point. You will submit the preference point fee along with your license fee
antelope? and application fee. If you are successful on your second or third choice hunt area, you will earn a
preference point. If you are successful on your first choice, you will not earn a preference point and will
receive a refund of your preference point fee. Option 2: You can apply for a license only with no desire to
earn a preference point. You will not earn a preference point. You submit your license fee and application
fee only. Option 3: From July 1 - Sept. 30, you can apply for a preference point only with no desire to be
in the Option 1 or Option 2 drawing for a license. You submit the preference point fee only. You may not
select Option 1 and Option 3 in the same year if you have earned a preference point or if you have drawn
your first choice license in the initial drawing.

Question: Answer:
Do I have a better chance of being Your chances are the same whether you apply as an individual or in a party. However, the odds of all
successful by applying as a single applicant members of a party being successful are significantly better if they apply as a party rather than individuals.
or a party applicant?

Question: Answer:
How can I apply risk-free for Reduced Many applicants wait to see if they draw a Full Price Elk, Deer or Antelope license, then attempt to purchase
Price licenses in the initial draw? a Reduced Price license using the WGFD website or at automated license selling agents, rather than apply
for a Reduced Price license in the initial drawing. These applicants do not want to risk drawing a Reduced
Price license without drawing their corresponding Full Price license. Wait no more! If you apply for a Full
Price Elk, Deer or Antelope license and want to apply for up to two (2) Reduced Price Doe/Fawn Deer,
Reduced Price Doe/Fawn Antelope or one (1) Reduced Price Cow/Calf Elk license without risk, then check
the withdrawal block on Forms 17, 18 and 19 for the applicable Reduced Price license(s). This will ensure
that if you are unsuccessful in the Full Price license drawing(s), you will be withdrawn from the Reduced
Price license drawing(s).

Question: Answer:
What is the difference between a Full Price Biologically, these are the same animal. The price is the difference. The term Antlerless Elk is used to
Antlerless Elk license and a Reduced Price identify the Full Price license and the term Cow/Calf Elk is used to identify the Reduced Price license. On
Cow/Calf Elk license? page 9 you will find information on Reduced Price Cow/Calf Elk licenses. Hunt areas that have Reduced
Price Cow/Calf Elk licenses are listed on page 19. Do not confuse these licenses with the Full Price
Antlerless Elk licenses listed on pages 17 and 18. Not all hunt areas have Reduced Price licenses; however,
some areas have both Full Price Antlerless Elk licenses and Reduced Price Cow/Calf Elk licenses. A person
may apply for and receive one Reduced Price Cow/Calf Elk license (Form 17) and one Full Price Elk license
(Form 17) in the same year. You do not have to have a Full Price license to apply for a Reduced Price license.
However, a person may not apply for and/or receive two (2) Full Price Elk licenses.

Question: Answer:
What is the difference between a Full By paying the additional $480.00 for Elk or $240.00 for Deer and/or Antelope, the applicant can participate
Price Special Elk, Deer or Antelope in a separate random drawing. Wyoming Statute allocates 40 percent of the available Nonresident Elk, 40
license and a Regular Full Price license? percent of the available Nonresident Antelope and 40 percent of the available Nonresident Deer licenses
to the applicants who pay the higher price. The expectation behind this is to increase drawing odds due to
fewer applicants paying the higher price. However, this is not always the case. To evaluate drawing odds from
the previous year, an applicant can purchase a demand index summary or view the information free on the
WGFD website. Odds can vary substantially year to year. There is no guarantee of success in the drawing
for special licenses. Please call 800-548-9453 to purchase a Demand Index.

Question: Answer
Can a youth applicant apply in a party of Yes, but the youth applicant must pay the Full Price Special license fee: Elk ($1,071.00), Deer ($566.00) or
Special Elk, Deer or Antelope? Antelope ($526.00).

Question: Answer:
Can an applicant apply for both a Full No. An applicant must apply for either the Full Price Regular or the Full Price Special license.
Price Regular license and a Full Price
Special license?
