Licenses

Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks has not offered a mountain lion license in Hunting District 404 in any draw we hold. It has a page because the agency still publishes harvest for it; the Montana mountain lion hunts that are on offer are drawn elsewhere.

What Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks publishes after each season, for everyone who hunted the area: harvest statistics, not draw odds. Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks publishes no whole-hunting district line for 2025; a year's total is the sum of published resident and nonresident rows, added only where the lines do not overlap. Hunter counts not published for 2025. Montana's figures blend mandatory reporting with a phone and mail survey. FWP does not publish district-level hunter counts for elk or antelope, so success rates are missing for those.

About These Numbers

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. How we compute these.
