2002 elk hunt applications due July 15:

The Michigan Department of Natural Resources reminds hunters that July
15 is the deadline to apply for a 2002 Michigan elk hunting license.

The 2002 elk hunting season is Dec. 10-17, on both public and private
lands in several northeast Michigan counties. A second hunting period in
January will be considered after the December hunt, based on harvest and
observations made by hunters.

Only Michigan residents are eligible to apply, and all hunters must be
14 years of age or older during the season for which they are applying.
Hunters can apply online at www.michigan.gov/dnr or at any authorized
license agent. A nonrefundable $4 fee is charged at the time of
application.

Applicants may check the drawing results online at www.michigan.gov/dnr
beginning Aug. 1 at 10 a.m. See the 2002 Michigan Elk Hunting Guide for
more details about the application process
