| All of Hunting District 445 | — | 19 | — |
Adding up Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks' published lines for Hunting District 445 gives 19 turkey taken in 2021 (sum of published hunt rows; hunter counts not published). 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
Odds are from the 2021 draw, the latest on file, computed from Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks' published results (first-choice tags drawn ÷ first-choice applicants, as published). 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.
