What Utah Division of Wildlife Resources publishes after each season, for everyone who hunted the area: harvest statistics, not draw odds. Utah Division of Wildlife Resources publishes no whole-unit line for 2025; a year's total is the sum of published weapon rows, added only where the lines do not overlap.

About These Numbers

Odds are from the 2026 draw, the latest on file, computed from Utah Division of Wildlife Resources' 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. How we compute these.
