SANTA FE -- Hunters who were successful in the drawing for 2008-2009 New Mexico deer hunting permits will receive their permits and carcass tags in separate mailings this summer, the Department of Game and Fish announced.

Hunters should begin receiving deer hunting permits in the mail this week. Carcass tags will be mailed soon.

To legally hunt deer on public land in New Mexico, hunters must have a permit, carcass tag, a license, a Habitat Management and Access Validation, and a Habitat Stamp if hunting on BLM or U.S. Forest Service land. Licenses, validations and stamps can be purchased as one document over the counter at vendors statewide, online at www.wildlife.state.nm.us, and at Department offices in Santa Fe, Albuquerque, Raton, Las Cruces and Roswell.

For more information, please call (505) 476-8087.
