Fifth Cat Taken, Mountain Lion Season Closes in Zone 1
North Dakota’s mountain lion season in Zone 1 is closed immediately, following the harvest of a lion on Saturday, Nov. 10 in McKenzie County. This was the fifth cat taken in Zone 1, filling the zone’s predetermined quota of five.
Zone 1 includes the portion of North Dakota west of ND Highway 8 from the South Dakota border to the south shore of Lake Sakakawea, and south and west of ND Highway 1804 from the Montana border to a point where ND Highway 1804 lies directly across Lake Sakakawea from ND Highway 8.
All five cats taken in Zone 1 were females. The first was taken Sept. 1 in McKenzie County, the next two were taken in mid-September in McKenzie and Dunn counties, and the fourth was taken Oct. 30 in McKenzie County.
Zone 2, the remainder of the state where there is no quota, will remain open through March 9, 2008. No mountain lions have been taken in Zone 2 so far this season.
Will open a new window (pop-up).
