New Mexico Unit 10 Rifle/Muzzleloader Elk Landowner Tags and Vouchers

In Unit 10 of New Mexico, landowners give hunters the chance to buy vouchers or landowner tags, letting them hunt on their land. They decide how many tags to give based on the size of the land and the elk population. This helps keep the number of hunters in check, ensuring hunting stays sustainable and helps preserve nature.
