hunting tags
Legal harvest permits
Hunting tags are permits that authorize the holder to kill a specific type of game animal during a designated season.
Wildlife agencies issue tags to manage animal populations and prevent overhunting.
Hunters must typically purchase tags in advance, and for popular species like elk or moose, tags are allocated by lottery: I finally drew a tag after five years of applying.
The physical tag gets attached to the carcass after a kill.
