Q. How do I sign up for depredation hunts? A. The first opportunity to sign up for next year's depredation hunts (if any are declared) will be May 1 through June 30. Those who sign up then will be chosen at random. You can still sign up after June 30 but your name goes on the list of hunters available for depredation hunts after those who signed up first and it goes on the list in order of date. The rules on depredation hunts, where to send applications, and forms are on page 79 of the big game brochure.
