Applications for North Dakota's 2007 tundra swan licenses are available and the deadline for submitting an application is Aug. 15.
North Dakota residents and nonresidents are eligible to apply. Interested hunters can print out an application for mailing, or submit a lottery application online at the state Game and Fish Department website, gf.nd.gov. Regular license fees apply and no service charge is added.
Applications will also be available by Aug. 1 from Game and Fish offices, county auditors and license vendors, or by calling 800-406-6409. A service fee is added for license applications made over the phone.
The statewide tundra swan hunting season is Sept. 29 – Dec. 9. A total of 2,200 licenses are available. Successful applicants will be issued a tag to take one swan during the season. Since swans are classified as waterfowl, nonresidents may hunt them only during the period their nonresident waterfowl license is valid.
