Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife in conjunction with the City of Augusta will hold the annual moose hunting permit lottery at Mill Park this Saturday, June 10.?

The City of Augusta is planning a variety of events starting at 10:00 a.m. for those attending the lottery, including Moose Maine-iah Monster Truck, vendors, kids? games, live music by Pat Colwill Band, corn hole tournament, and food trucks. To learn more or to sign up to be a vendor at the event, visit augustamaine.gov/departments/community_services/moose_lottery.php [ www.augustamaine.gov/departments/community_services/moose_lottery.php ]

At 2:00 p.m. on Saturday, June 10, the moose permit lottery drawing will commence. There is no charge to attend the lottery and the reading of names is expected to last 3 hours.

This year, 4,106 permits will be drawn in the random chance lottery from a pool of over 72,000 applicants.

Maine?s moose hunt is designed to manage the moose population. By modifying the number and type of moose permits available to hunters, the department can manage the moose population to provide for hunting and viewing opportunities, maintain a healthy moose population, and limit the number of moose/vehicle accidents.

For those prospective moose hunters who can?t make it to the lottery drawing, the names of permit winners will be posted on the Department?s website by 6:00 p.m. on the day of the event. Visit mefishwildlife.com [ [link removed] ] to access the list once it has been posted.
