Q. Why do trophy hunt tags cost more than is listed in the rule book?

A. The 2005?2006 rule book was published before the 2005 season, and fees went up in July 2005. Moose, bighorn sheep and mountain goat tags cost $174.50 for Idaho residents. The non-resident cost is $1,759.50. The price includes a $7.75 controlled hunt permit fee, but it doesn't include the nonrefundable $6.25 application fee. Tag and permit fees must be submitted at the time of application. Hunters also must buy a valid Idaho hunting license.

The application period runs from April 1 through 30. Applications may be made by telephone, at 1(800) 554-8685; from the G-Tech link on the Internet at http://fishandgame.idaho.gov/cms/hunt/ch/; at Fish and Game offices; and at license vendors.
