Does the state show the winners or at least what they paid for the five bidding tags?

 

[N.E. CHARTERS]

Check the State Site for Winners

Check the State Site for Winners.

The Post all the Names of Moose Lottery winners and the town/state they are from

They Post the Winning Ammounts of the 5 Permits that go by high Auction but not who bid what.

Last year the Bidders of the Auction permits were around $12,000. for the hunting permit. They all went to out of State Non-Residents I believe.

I think that permit bidding is a great idea for the Wildlife dept to raise some additional funds.
