As of Sept. 18, more than 650 fall turkey licenses remain in four units. Licenses are issued on a first-come, first-served basis to hunters who do not already have a license, or for those who want additional licenses.

Turkey licenses remain for the following units: Unit 04, portions of Billings and Golden Valley counties south of Interstate 94; Unit 13, Dunn County; Unit 17, portions of Billings and Golden Valley counties north of Interstate 94; and Unit 99, Mercer and Oliver counties.

The fall wild turkey season opens Oct. 14 and continues through Jan. 14, 2007.

Hunters who do not have a swan license for the 2006 hunting season still have an opportunity to purchase one, as 50 were still available as of Sept. 18. Remaining swan licenses will be issued only as a first license. The fee is $5 for residents and $25 for nonresidents.

The statewide tundra swan hunting season is Sept. 30 - Dec. 10.

Nearly 20,000 antlerless deer licenses are available to hunters who don't already have a license, or for those who want additional licenses. Doe licenses are still available in units 1, 2C, 2D, 2E, 2F1, 2G, 2H, 2I, 2J2, 2K1, 2K2, 2L, 3A4, 3B1, 3B3, 3E1, 3E2, 3F1, 3F2, 4E and 4F.

These remaining licenses - and doe licenses that have already been issued and are printed with second, third or additional concurrent season designations - can be used during any open season:

bow season with a bow; the deer gun season with a bow, rifle, or muzzle-loader; or during the muzzle-loader season with a muzzle-loader. Hunters must stay in the unit to which the license is assigned.

The archery season is open through Jan. 7, 2007; the regular deer gun season opens at noon Nov. 10 and continues through Nov. 26; and the muzzle-loader season opens at noon Dec. 1 and continues through Dec. 17.
