for the conservation, restoration, utilization, and management of elk.
(2) Requirements for issuance of special elk
permits:
(a) The
state game commission shall authorize the director of the department to issue
not more than two special elk permits in any one license year to take one bull
elk per permit. The director shall allow
the sale of one permit through auction to the highest bidder and one permit to
a person selected through a random drawing of a lottery ticket by the
department or an incorporated, non-profit organization dedicated to the
conservation of elk.
(b) Unless
their hunting privileges have been revoked pursuant to law, any person is
eligible to submit a bid for the special elk auction permit or purchase lottery
tickets in an attempt to be selected for the special elk lottery permit.
(c) The
special elk permits issued through auction and lottery may be transferred,
through sale, barter or gift by the successful individuals to only other
individuals qualified to hunt.
(d) Special
elk permits granted through auction or lottery, as described above, shall not
be considered ‘once-in-a-lifetime’ permits.
(3) Enhancement hunts: Elk enhancement licenses shall be valid from
September 1 through January 31 for any legal sporting arms. These licenses shall be valid statewide where
hunting is allowed. Bag limit shall be one bull elk. The authorization to obtain an elk
enhancement license may be used either by the applicant or any individual.
B. Elk incentive programs: The director may annually allow up to two elk
authorizations to be issued for deer and elk hunters submitting their legally
harvested animal for CWD testing.
Authorizations to purchase an incentive license may be used either by
the applicant or any individual. The
authorization may be transferred through sale, barter or gift. Elk incentive hunts shall be valid only for
the dates, legal sporting arms, bag limit and area specified by the director.
C. Encouragement hunts:

resident youth hunters as defined by 19.31.3 NMAC who have successfully
fulfilled all application requirements and responsibilities for draw hunts for
deer, elk, pronghorn, ibex, oryx, Barbary sheep or
bighorn sheep in the current license year and were unsuccessful in drawing any
licenses will be eligible to apply for licenses for these hunts for 14 days on

remaining after 14 days shall be available to eligible resident seniors (65 years
and older) who have successfully fulfilled all application requirements and
responsibilities for draw hunts for deer, elk, pronghorn, ibex, oryx, Barbary sheep or bighorn sheep in the current license
year and were unsuccessful in drawing any licenses.

director, with concurrence of the chairperson of the state game commission, may

harvest in regional populations, herd units or GMUs within a region results in
the trend of annual bull mortality rates to be below thirty-five percent.
(b) Seasons
should be designed to ensure timing and length of hunts are
desirable.
(c) At
least two-thirds of all hunters are “satisfied” with the experience.
(2) Optimal opportunity management (OOM):
(a) Elk
harvest in regional populations, herd units or GMUs within a region results in
the trend of annual bull mortality rates to be below forty-five percent and
harvest near optimal sustainable yield.
(b) Season
structure should be designed to ensure timing and length of hunts provides
significant amount of opportunity.
(c) At
least one-third of all hunters are “satisfied” with the experience.
B. Northwest region: primary management zones in GMUs 2, 5A, 9 and
10.
(1) Optimal
opportunity management within primary management zones in GMUs 2, 5A, 9 and 10.
