The Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife on Thursday announced the lucky hunters who have the opportunity to try for an antlerless deer this fall.

The permit allows you to shoot any antlerless deer, which is typically a doe, or any deer with antlers less than 3 inches in length.

Hunters drawn for an antlerless permit can harvest an antlerless deer in the Wildlife Management District for which they were chosen and may also take a buck anywhere in Maine during the same season.

Search the spreadsheet below to find out if you were awarded a permit this year.
