Hunters are required to report on each deer, elk, cougar, bear, pronghorn and turkey tag purchased — even if they were not successful or did not hunt. Sports Pac license holders need to report on each big game or turkey tag issued. Hunters have two ways to report: • Online at www.odfw.com or report myhunt.com, either at home or by vis- iting an ODFW office with a comput- er available for Hunter Reporting. • By phone, call 1-866-947-6339 to talk to a customer service representa- tive from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m., seven days a week. Reporting deadlines are: • Jan. 31, for all 2016 hunts that ended by Dec. 31, 2016; • April 15, for all 2016 hunts that end between Jan. 1 to March 31, 2017. Hunters need the following pieces of information to report, which takes just a couple of minutes: • Hunter/Angler ID number (located on ODFW licenses, tags and applica- tions; this is a permanent number that stays the same from year-to-year) • The two digit Wildlife Management Unit (WMU) number of the Unit you hunted in most and the Unit you harvested an animal in if suc- cessful. • The total number of days hunted (including mentoring youth), the num- ber of days hunted in the WMU hunt- ed most, and the number of days hunt- ed in the WMU you harvested an ani- mal in if successful. Hunters who fail to report 2016 deer or elk tags on time will be penalized $25 when they purchase a 2018 hunt- ing license. This penalty is assessed once, regardless of the number of unreported tags.
