The winning Moose tag is valid for the 2025 moose season. Winning moose tag may be used to harvest any legal moose in any open North Dakota moose unit, during any moose season.
The winning hunter must be of legal age to hunt moose in North Dakota, possess a valid hunting license, and have completed a hunter’s education course, if necessary.
The moose tag winner cannot receive the tag if they have ever been convicted of illegally killing a moose, elk, or Bighorn sheep.
The tag does not count against the “Once In A Lifetime” tag. Past North Dakota Moose Lottery drawing winners can win. If a hunter wins this tag, they may continue to apply through the normal North Dakota Moose Lottery in the future.
Non-residents ARE allowed to hunt moose in North Dakota with this tag. If the winner does not wish to hunt North Dakota Moose, the winner can take the second prize of Cash, and the second prize winner will receive the moose tag.
You cannot win the Moose Raffle Tag and Lottery Tag in the same year. One tag will have to be given back.
