Moose permit lottery now open

By Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife

The 2022 Maine moose permit lottery application process is now open. Applications will be accepted online only.

When applicants fill out the online moose permit application, they will be able to indicate several preferences, including which wildlife management districts (WMD) they are willing to accept a permit in, if they would accept a permit in another WMD if all of your top choices are filled. Applicants will also be able to select a preferred hunting season, whether or not they would accept an antlerless permit, and their choice of a sub-permittee.

Applicants will also be asked if they want to apply for the Adaptive Unit Hunt (WMD 4A). To learn more about the special requirements for the Adaptive Unit Hunt, click here.

Applications must be completed by 11:59 pm (ET) May 12. The 2021 moose lottery permit drawing will take place June 11.
