What Alaska Department of Fish and Game publishes after each season, for everyone who hunted the area: harvest statistics, not draw odds. Alaska's figures come from mandatory harvest reports and sealing certificates rather than a hunter survey, so they are counts of animals reported, not estimates.

About These Numbers
Odds are from the 2025 draw, the latest on file, computed from Alaska Department of Fish and Game's published results. They are what happened in that draw, not a forecast. Under five tags a percentage carries a *, because one applicant either way swings it. A dash means the agency did not publish the number, and a date marked expected is last cycle's schedule rolled forward.
