BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — North Dakota’s Game and Fish Department says 408 swan hunting licenses remain after the recent license lottery.
Beginning Sept. 4, all remaining licenses will be issued on a first-come, first-served basis. Only hunters who do not have a swan license for the 2018 season can apply.
The statewide tundra swan hunting season is Sep. 29 through Dec. 30.
