Permits, Tags, and Registration Top

Bands may establish marten quotas in Minnesota. For most years tribal harvest will fall below the established threshold, and no quota will be established. Information about the quotas is available from your Band’s conservation department, registration station, or GLIFWC.

Minnesota 1837 Ceded Territory 

  • The number of marten you may harvest is limited to the number of tags you have.

Registration is required for marten. Marten must be registered in-person at a tribal registration station or in the field by a GLIFWC or tribal warden by 5:00 pm on the third working day after retrieval. The sex of the animal taken, management unit of harvest, date of harvest, and the harvester's NAGFA ID number must be presented to the registering official. The whole carcass, or whole skin, must be provided for registration.
