2009 pronghorn antelope permit applications online only

The Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks (KDWP) has announced
that there will be no paper applications or mail-in forms for 2009
antelope permits. All applications must be submitted online. The
application deadline is midnight June 12. Those who applied last
year will not receive an application in the mail this year.

The application deadline is midnight June 12 for muzzleloader
and firearm permits; archery permits may be purchased through Oct.
30. Archery season is Sept. 19-27 and Oct. 10-31. Muzzleloader
permit holders may hunt Sept. 28-Oct. 5. Firearm season is Oct.
2-5.

Forty-eight muzzleloader and 130 firearm permits are available
this year. Only Kansas residents are eligible for muzzleloader and
firearm permits. Unlimited archery permits are available, and last
year 163 residents obtained permits to bowhunt antelope.
Nonresidents may also purchase archery antelope permits over the
counter. Six nonresident archery permits were issued in 2008, and a
similar number is anticipated this year.
