2021 Maine Moose Lottery Results

Over the weekend the names of lucky hunters selected for moose permits were announced.

The results are in. Over the weekend wildlife officials listed those who were selected for moose permits. 4,030 permits were awarded for the upcoming 2021 Maine moose hunt, 345 more than the previous year. Most of the permits, totaling 1,650, were divided among Wildlife Management Districts 1, 2, and 4. The 500 permits issued in Zone 4 were separate from the Adaptive Moose Hunt.

New this season will be IFW's Adaptive Moose Hunt. The special hunt helps biologists determine if moose density reduction can break or lessen winter tick impacts to moose in Maine. 550 cow permits were issued in a particular area of Zone 4, where the study will be conducted. All the moose harvested in the study area will be analyzed by biologists. To learn more about the Adaptive Unit Moose Hunt, check out our in-depth article.
