When can I apply for this year's moose hunts, and when will the new rule books be available?A.

The application period for moose, bighorn sheep and mountain goat controlled hunts begins April 1 and runs through April 30. The rule book is published every two years, so this year's book will be the same as last year's. The fees have changed since the book was printed. The new fees are $166.75 for resident moose, sheep or goat tags, plus a $6.25 controlled hunt application fee. The cost for nonresidents is $2101.75, plus a $14.75 application fee. The rule books are available at license vendors, Fish and Game offices and on the Fish and Game Website: http://fishandgame.idaho.gov/cms/hunt/rules/mgs/.
