Turkey license numbers expand, season set
By North Dakota Game and Fish Department
The Game and Fish Department is offering 7,005 wild turkey licenses for the 2021 spring hunting season, 775 more than last year. The deadline for applying is Feb. 10.
Fifteen of the 22 hunting units have more spring licenses than last year and six remain the same. Unit 21, (Hettinger and Adams counties, is again closed due to lack of turkeys in the unit.
One noteworthy change is muzzleloading rifles are no longer a legal firearm. Only shotguns, including muzzleloading shotguns, no larger than 10 gauge are legal.
Spring turkey applicants can apply at the Game and Fish Department, be submitted by calling (800)406-6409 or apply online.
