Huntable species include pronghorn, elk, mule deer, black bear, cougar, and Merriam's turkey under zone- and species-specific seasons; note that NMDGF has capped private-land pronghorn licenses in GMU 57. Land ownership is a mix of private ranchland, state trust land, and checkerboarded Kiowa National Grassland (USFS) parcels. A valid New Mexico hunting license is required. Confirm dates and draw status with the current NM Hunting Rules & Information.
