Deer Lottery Held, Licenses Remain

North Dakota’s deer gun lottery has been held and more than 2,900 licenses remain. Only resident applicants who were unsuccessful in the lottery can apply for remaining licenses.

Successful applicants will have their payment processed, with licenses mailed in early August.

More than 70,000 individuals applied for a deer gun lottery license, in addition to over 12,000 gratis applicants. The 2025 deer gun proclamation allows for 42,300 deer gun season licenses.

Unsuccessful applicants can apply online for remaining licenses beginning July 2. The deadline for applying is July 16.
