Back in the early teen's it was somewhere about 8000, and they sell around 300-400 a year since. I would imagine the total number to be up around 12,000 by now. Several of my friends bought them before moving out of state to CA and OR. They knew they wouldn't ever move back here, but they come back to hunt every year. They wanted to make sure they never had issues with NR quotas, and were able to put in for Sheep/Moose/Goat in the resident pools for OIL tags.

Well...there capped sooo they don’t increase...
Tags for nonresidents with Lifetime certificates come out of resident tag pool.

Yup. I was responding to “non resident tag numbers” sales not increasing. Because they can’t, they are set at a cap.
But to cut to what I think your getting at. Residents bitching about too many non residents and how stupid that must be because those tag numbers haven’t increased. I’m one who bitches about it. But Ive never said the numbers have increased I’ve always stated they just need to be slashed. I stand by that. Idaho’s resident population has grown. The cap for non resident hunters needs to shrink accordingly

The guys whining about the non residents are missing the BIG picture….
I don’t know this answer but does Idaho have a
“Right to hunt law?”
Anything like the law Utah put in place many years ago?I think it was called Proposition 5.
With so many people moving into IDAHO you
Better quit worrying about non residents and focus on getting your LAWS set up or you may end up with NO HUNTING at all.
It won’t take that many non hunters to change your game laws!

Idaho needs to put a cap on people moving there. Feel bad for the gem state.
