BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) - North Dakota's early Canada goose hunting season gets underway Monday.
The season has a limit of 15 birds daily and 45 in possession. Shooting hours are half an hour before sunrise to sunset.
Residents need a $5 early Canada goose license and a general game and habitat license. Residents age 16 and older also need a small game license.
Nonresidents need only a $50 early Canada goose license, and it's valid statewide without counting against the 14-day regular season license.
The season continues through Sept. 15, except in the Missouri River Zone, where it ends Sept. 7. The zone is along the Missouri River south of Garrison Dam.
