North Dakota Deer Hunters Urged To Check Licenses

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — North Dakota wildlife officials are urging deer hunters to find their license and check it for accuracy.

The Game and Fish Department says every year its licensing section receives last-minute inquiries from hunters who can't find their license, and it's difficult for the agency to issue a replacement license in time for the season opener.

Game and Fish says hunters also should check their license to make sure the unit and species is what was intended.

This year's deer gun season gets underway at noon on Friday, Nov. 6, and runs through Nov. 22. All of the 43,275 licenses being made available have been issued.
