The tribal member hunts are designed to give tribal members 

 opportunities to hunt mule deer, elk. black bear, mountain lion, 

 turkey and small game, primarily for recreational purposes. All 

 permits are limited in number and tribal members must adhere to 

 specific season dates, bag limits and weapon restrictions. For 

 information on the total number of hunting permits issued to tribal 

 members in 1992 see Table 1. 



The non-tribal hunting program is strictly a Trophy Hunting 

 operation. Limited numbers of permits are issued to clients on a 

 first-come or random drawing basis, depending on the hunt. Fees 

 charged for these permits is relatively high and the emphasis is on 

 harvesting trophy quality animals. All client hunters are required 

 to hire Jicarilla Apache guides. Table 2 lists the number of 

 client hunting permits sold in 1992.
