The Michigan Department of Natural Resources today announced that
there are more than 30,000 leftover licenses available for the fall
turkey season.
Leftover licenses may be purchased over-the-counter by individuals
who did not apply for a fall wild turkey license in August.
Licenses will be sold until the quota is met.
The complete list of leftover licenses is located on the DNR Web
site.
The fall turkey season is open Oct. 3 through Nov. 14 in selected
areas of the state. A hunter may only purchase one fall turkey hunting
license each year. Last year, 16,200 fall wild turkey hunters harvested
4,900 turkeys. See the 2005 Fall Wild Turkey Hunting Guide or visit the
DNR Web site for hunt numbers, dates and regulations pertaining to the
fall season.
