FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE   June 30, 2026   Limited private-land pronghorn licenses available   SANTA FE – The New Mexico Department of Wildlife reminds hunters that private-land pronghorn licenses in northeastern New Mexico are available for the 2026-2027 license year.  

Private-land pronghorn license sales are limited in Game Management Units (GMU) 41, 42, 47, 56, 57, 58 and 59. These licenses will be available beginning at 8 a.m. July 1 through the Department’s Online License System, license vendors or by phone at 888-248-6866.   

Hunters should purchase any required game hunting license and/or stamps before July 1. Limited licenses will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis and are expected to sell out quickly. Once a hunter selects a limited hunt code online, they will have five minutes to complete their purchase before the license is returned to inventory.

If a hunter is successful in purchasing one of these licenses, they must obtain written permission from the landowner before hunting.  

Other licenses available beginning July 1 include over-the-counter javelina, fall turkey, private-land deer, private-land Barbary sheep and secondary management zone private-land elk, as well as federal Duck Stamps.   ###
