Idaho Elk/Deer deadline?????

[Califelkslayer]

Think this has been May 1 through May 31st for ever. Just looked @ the Calender and they show 2 different deadlines. First is for goat/sheep/moose right? The second one is for Deer/Elk? Showed Mid-June so I know there's a change but not sure what it is.

The application period for goat/sheep/moose has been April 1st to April 30th for years. The deer/elk/antelope was May 1st-31st for years but it was extended to June 5th. The POSSUM machines used to purchase licenses and apply for hunts were overloaded at the end of May every year. The F&G extending the application period so the POSSUM machines wouldn't be bogged down by controlled hunt applicants when people were tryig to buy fishing licenses for the opening of the general fishing season on Memorial Day weekend.
