This hunt appears in the division's reports for 2025 only. Utah renumbers and retires hunts between cycles and publishes no crosswalk between an old code and a new one, so this site does not map one onto another — a renumbered hunt is not necessarily the same hunt. What follows is the record of the one year it was drawn.

Success is permits issued divided by eligible applicants at that level. The division also prints a 1 in N ratio, rounded to one decimal — at these small numbers that rounding turns a 95% draw into 1 in 1.0, so the figure here is that quotient computed exactly rather than read back off the ratio. It describes that year's draw and nothing beyond it.
