How It Hunted, 2024

WhoHuntersHarvestSuccess
All of GMU 8 96 34 36%

Across every license type in GMU 8, Colorado Parks and Wildlife counted 96 hunters and 34 pronghorn taken in 2024, and 36% of them took a pronghorn. Colorado's figures come from CPW's post-season hunter survey. CPW's 2025 report dropped the per-GMU table in favour of hunt-code rows, so the newest year shown here is 2024. Source: CPW 2024 Statewide Pronghorn Harvest; CPW 2023 Statewide Pronghorn Harvest Estimates.

About These Numbers

Odds are from the 2026 draw, the latest on file, computed from Colorado Parks and Wildlife's published results (preference points, computed from published point-level pools). 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.
