North Dakota's hunting regulations vary by species, license, and the hunting arms you use. The laws and rules can change, so it's a good practice to check the Game and Fish Department's species-specific online guide before setting out. It's also important to note that hunters who don't live in North Dakota must obtain the relevant licenses, certificates, and endorsements. However, not all North Dakota species, like mountain lions, are open to taking by non-resident hunters. So, non-residents in particular should familiarize themselves with the species-specific regulations.
