The provincial government is reminding eligible hunters in the province that the deadline for applications for the 2010 big-game licence draw is the close of business today.
Big-game hunters who have applied online can continue to make changes to their application up to that time.
"Although the information is clearly outlined in our annual Hunting and Trapping Guide which goes out to eligible hunters, I want to remind them of today's deadline," said Charlene Johnson, Minister of Environment and Conservation.
"Hunting is a very important activity for many residents of our province and has significant recreational, cultural and social value, as well as being an important food source."
According to a news release, the big game licence draw is expected to be completed by early June.
All big-game applicants will be notified by mail whether they have been awarded a licence. Additionally, once the draw is complete, individuals who submitted applications can check results online by logging into the provincial Wildlife Information Management System using the login information contained in the application.
For more information about the resident big game licence draw or hunter priority status, visit www.wildlife.gov.nl.ca or call 709-637-2025 or 709-729-2630.
