Don't wait until the last minute...
Apply to the 2024 Maine moose permit lottery today!
Applications for the moose permit lottery will be accepted online only.
To apply online, go to mefishwildlife.com and fill out the online moose permit application. There you will be able to indicate several preferences, including which wildlife management districts (WMD) you are willing to accept a permit in and if you would accept a permit in another WMD if your name is drawn and all of your top choices are filled. You will also be able to select your preferred hunting season, whether or not you would accept an antlerless permit, and your choice of a sub-permittee. You will also be asked if you want to apply for the Adaptive Unit Hunt (WMD 4A).
Applications must be completed by 11:59 pm (ET) on May 15, 2024.
The 2024 moose lottery permit drawing will take place Saturday, June 15 at Fort Kent. Additional details about the event will be available soon!

Space is limited, so register soon to get guidance from MDIFW staff and Registered Maine Guides about the permit process, gear, tactics, retrieval, meat care, tagging, and more!
