BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) - North Dakota’s Game and Fish Department has held its spring wild turkey hunting license lottery, and 891 licenses remain in 12 units.

Game and Fish offered 5,685 turkey licenses for the spring season, down from 5,815 last year. Hunters can apply for a second license, and hunters who did not apply in the first drawing also are eligible.

The remaining licenses will be issued on a first-come, first-served basis beginning March 15. Only North Dakota residents are eligible to apply.



The spring turkey season opens April 8 and continues through May 14.
