No points in this draw. Every applicant has the same chance each year.

New for 2026

The 2026 draw is the first on record for 79-7: Wyoming Game and Fish Department did not offer this hunt code in earlier years, so the year-by-year table has one row. The odds shown are that one draw's actual results, not an estimate.

About These Numbers

Odds are from the 2026 draw, the latest on file, computed from Wyoming Game and Fish Department's published results (tags ÷ applicants). 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.
