According to a press release by the Nevada Department of Wildlife (NDOW), big game hunters who did not obtain a tag in Nevada's main computerized drawing still have a chance to get in on this year's hunting seasons.
There are more than 900 big game tags still available for the upcoming second drawing. The tags that have drawn the most interest are:
The 107 cow elk tags for rifle hunters, the 15 cow elk tags for muzzleloader hunters, and the 22 cow elk tags for archers.
Most of these tags were in the Non-Resident quota for the first drawing, but since they were not drawn by Non-Residents, they are available, equally, to resident and Non-Residents in the second drawing.
