Win an Exclusive North Dakota Non-Resident Turkey Tag

   03.07.12

North Dakota, the only state with a spring turkey season that does not sell non-resident spring turkey tags, has donated one of these great non-resident permits to the NWTF. The NWTF is now auctioning off this one-of-a-kind turkey tag and you could get to harvest your bird on either public or private land.

Tag Information:

  • The tag is good for one North Dakota spring turkey and is good for the entire season – April 14 to May 20.
  • You can hunt any open turkey hunting unit in the state.
  • This is the only North Dakota spring turkey tag available to non-residents on public or private land.
  • Additional state general game license(s) are required with a cost of approximately $15-20.
  • This is a non-guided hunt. However, assistance in planning the hunt (general areas, places to stay, etc.) will be available from North Dakota NWTF State Chapter board members. The winning bidder is responsible for travel, food, lodging and all other costs.

To place a bid on this tag, email Marc at mkurz@undeerc.org. The auction will end at 8 p.m. Central Time on Sunday, March 25, and you can review the current bid at www.facebook.com/DakotaNWTF.

The National Wild Turkey Federation is the leader in upland wildlife habitat conservation in North America. The NWTF is a nonprofit organization dedicated to conserving the wild turkey and preserving our hunting heritage.

Through dynamic partnerships with state, federal and provincial wildlife agencies, the NWTF and its members have helped restore wild turkey populations throughout North America, spending more than $331 million to conserve nearly 16 million acres of habitat. Wild turkeys and hundreds of other species of upland wildlife, including quail, deer, grouse, pheasant and songbirds, benefit from this improved habitat.

The NWTF also brings new conservationists and hunters into the fold through outdoor education events and its Women in the Outdoors, Wheelin' Sportsmen, JAKES and Xtreme JAKES youth outreach programs. Our dedicated NWTF volunteers introduce about 100,000 people to the outdoors through these programs every year.

Founded in 1973, the NWTF is headquartered in Edgefield, S.C., and has local chapters in every state and Canada. According to many state and federal agencies, the restoration of the wild turkey is arguably the greatest conservation success story in North America's wildlife history.
