Because hunting access in many zones is limited, hunters should obtain landowner permission before purchasing a leftover permit. For 2010, the fall hunt has been changed to a single 30-day season running from Saturday, Oct, 2, to Sunday, Oct. 31.

Hunters may check the availability of leftover licenses or the status of their lottery applications on the DNR website.
