Each summer, the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife announces the winners of its Moose Permit Lottery. Below is an abbreviated list of the winners, identifying those from Knox and Waldo counties, and the town of Waldoboro.

Facts and figures: According to state wildlife biologists, Maine's moose population is estimated at 29,000. The number of permits issued for the 2012 hunting season is 3,725. Hunters killed 2,582 moose out of a possible 3,903 permits issued in 2011.  For the 2011 season, the overall success rate for all moose seasons (September, October and November) was 66 percent.  Southern Maine moose hunting had a much lower success rate, which is expected, at 22 percent.  The traditional Wildlife Management Districts further to the north had an overall success rate of 71 percent. 

This year, the moose hunting seasons are as follows.

Sept. 24-Sept. 29 – MMD’s 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 11, and 19.
Oct. 8-Oct. 13 – WMD’s 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 17, 18, 19, 27, and 28.
