There are a handful of over-the-counter hunt-permit tags available for the General Javelina Season and a few hundred tags available for the Handgun, Archery and Muzzleloader Season (Feb. 15-21), advises the Arizona Game and Fish Department.

"The tags are available on a first-come, first-served basis, which means these remaining tags will likely go fast now that we are offering them over-the-counter and via mail," says Public Information Officer Rory Aikens.

To find out what javelina tags remain, you can call (602) 789-3702 or visit the Game and Fish Internet Home Page at www.azgfd.com and look under "What's New." The Home Page information is updated weekly, and the phone line information is typically updated daily.
