WYOMING GOVERNOR’S SHIRAS MOOSE LICENSE
Wyoming Governor Matt Mead, the Wyoming Game and Fish Commission & Department, and the North American Moose Foundation (via the Wyoming Governor’s Big Game License Coalition) are pleased to provide Wild Sheep Foundation - Midwest Chapter with a 2015 Shiras moose license for auction. The 2015 Wyoming Governor’s Moose License is only valid in open hunt areas with more than 10 Type 1 any- or antlered- moose licenses issued. For 2014 this license was valid in 12 hunt areas: 1, 5, 10, 20, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, and 38/41. These hunt areas account for over 70% of Wyoming’s annual Shiras moose harvest. The number of licenses issued per hunt area MAY change from year to year. Seasons and license numbers for fall 2015 will be finalized in April 2015.
Successful purchaser may hunt any open hunt area that qualifies in accordance with the above. The purchaser does not have to pick a specific hunt area and may hunt different hunt areas. The five-year waiting period between moose licenses does not affect the ability to purchase a Governor’s moose license, and purchasing this license is independent of applying for a moose license through the draw system. The license fee ($117 for Resident, $1,416 for Non-Resident) is waived. Preference points are not affected by purchase of a Wyoming Governor’s Moose License. 90% of the auction proceeds provide funding for Wyoming moose projects via the Wyoming Governor’s Big Game License Coalition.
