North Dakota’s mountain lion season in zone 1 is closed immediately, following the harvest of a lion Dec. 11 in McKenzie County. The cat, taken 18 miles west of Grassy Butte by a hunter using hounds, was the eighth taken in zone 1, filling the zone’s predetermined quota.

Zone 1 includes land south of ND Highway 1804 from the Montana border to the point where ND Highway 1804 lies directly across Lake Sakakawea from ND Highway 8, crossing Lake Sakakawea then south along ND Highway 8 to ND Highway 200, then west on ND Highway 200 to U.S. Highway 85, then south on U.S. Highway 85 to the South Dakota border.

Zone 2, the remainder of the state where there is no quota, will remain open through March 31, 2010.
