Last year by May 31, 2005, officials had received 11,051 applications for 345 moose permits. As of May 31, 2006, only about 7,000 applications had been received. Officials decided to extend the application process another 5 days and the drawing for the permits will take place on June 13 and winners will be notified by mail.
If you haven’t applied, here’s a chance to get it done. Hunters can apply by calling 1-900-565-3337 or by writing to Moose Draw, Wildlife Division, 136 Exhibition St., Kentville, B4N 4E5.
