2025 Moose permit lottery applications are accepted online only until May 15, 2025 at 11:59 pm
Applications for the moose permit lottery are now open! To apply, visit mefishwildlife.com and complete the online moose permit application. During the application process, you can indicate your preferences, including which Wildlife Management Districts (WMDs) you’re willing to hunt in and whether you’d accept a permit in a different WMD if your top choices are already filled. You’ll also be able to choose your preferred hunting season, indicate if you’re willing to accept an antlerless permit, and name a sub-permittee. Additionally, you’ll be asked if you want to apply for the Adaptive Unit Hunt in WMD 4A.
Applications must be completed by 11:59 pm (ET) on May 15, 2025.
The 2025 moose permit lottery drawing will take place Saturday, June 21 at the High Peaks Outdoor Heritage Festival in Farmington, Maine. Those who do not attend the in-person drawing can view lottery results at mefishwildlife.com by 6pm on June 21.
