Kentucky residents interested in participating in quota hunts now have the opportunity to apply for permits. The application period for these hunts officially opened on Monday, June 7th. These quota hunts are designed to help manage wildlife populations in the state.
Various hunting opportunities are available through these quota hunts, including deer, elk, and turkey. Hunters can apply for permits either online or by phone. The application fee is $3, with an additional $1.75 convenience fee for online applications. The application period will be open until midnight on September 30th.
Quota hunts are limited-entry hunts that allow wildlife officials to control the number of hunters in a specific area. This helps ensure sustainable wildlife populations and promote ethical hunting practices. Hunters are selected through a random drawing process, with successful applicants notified by mail.
Successful applicants will receive a tag allowing them to participate in the designated quota hunt. Hunters who are not selected in the drawing will have the opportunity to apply for leftover tags, if available, after the drawing is completed.
The quota hunt application process is an important opportunity for hunters to participate in regulated hunts and contribute to wildlife management efforts in Kentucky. By applying for these permits, hunters are able to enjoy a unique hunting experience while also supporting conservation efforts in the state.
