The Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife has released the results for the 2025 antlerless deer permit lottery.
If you were selected, your antlerless deer permit authorizes you to harvest any doe or any deer with antlers measuring less than three inches in length.
Here’s what makes this permit even more valuable: you can hunt for both an antlerless deer and a buck this season. Your antlerless permit is district-specific, but with a valid big-game license, you can pursue antlered bucks anywhere in Maine during the same hunting season.
Use the search table below to find whether your name is among this year’s permit winners. You can sort and filter results by last name, residence, state or Wildlife Management District.
