In an effort to assist Colorado's big game hunters applying for the draw, Colorado Parks and Wildlife provides the following draw and hunting season information. These reports show how many licenses were available in all big game management units throughout Colorado, how many hunters applied for those limited licenses, how many of those hunters were successful drawing and how many preference points it took to be successful.
Draw Recap report combines pre-draw and post-draw information in an easy to read layout. A summary of Pre-Draw applications by hunt code and preference point level on the left and Post Draw results on the right side of the page.
Note: Please remember that these will only be guidelines in helping you fill out your limited license applications: quotas, applicant pools, and hunt codes may change year-to-year.
The Drawn Out Report shows the last point/choice at which a license was drawn for a specific hunt code broken out by type of application and residency.

Video: Bear Tooth Age Data
During mandatory checks Colorado Parks and Wildlife will extract and collect a small tooth located just behind either upper canine tooth. This tooth is sent to a lab for age determination. Bear age data is provided online so hunters can look up the age of their harvested animal by seal number. This is the only way for hunters to find this information. For privacy reasons, hunter’s names are not posted. Bear age results for the prior year are typically posted by late July or early August.
The results also include some animals that died as roadkill and other forms of mortality. The age is reported as an age class. This means a 0 = cub or kitten, 0 to about 9 months old, 1 = about 10 to 18 months old, 2 = about 1.5 years to 2.5 years old, and so on.
