The Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries (LDWF) is accepting applications for lottery hunts to be held on several Wildlife Management Areas (WMA) this upcoming hunting season.



LDWF is sponsoring the hunts to provide a quality outdoor experience for the various hunters. Youth, physically challenged, physically challenged wheelchair confined and general lottery hunts will be conducted. A first time youth lottery squirrel hunt will also be conducted on Floy W. McElroy WMA.

Successful participants in the hunts will be selected by a randomized computer drawing. Applications for the lottery should be submitted to LDWF before close of business on the date listed on the application. Rules and regulations pertaining to the hunts are also included on the application. A $5 administrative fee will be charged to each applicant.

Applications and more information may be obtained by contacting your local LDWF office or by visiting the LDWF Web site at www.wlf.louisiana.gov/hunting/regulations/wma/lotteryhunts.

Completed applications may be mailed to Wildlife Division WMA Lotteries, DWF, P.O. Box 98000, Baton Rouge, LA 70898 to the attention of the lottery application title. For more information, contact Randy Myers at 225-765-2359.
