The East River resident "special any deer" license allocation is the greater of four percent of the total East River deer licenses which included an "any deer" tag allocated in the previous year, or 500 resident licenses. These licenses are available by lottery and are valid only on private property not leased by the Department of Game, Fish and Parks for public hunting in any unit east of the Missouri River. The license is valid for one "any deer." An applicant may apply for both an East River special any deer license and a West River special any deer license, but may only receive one special any deer license in any given year. A successful East River special any deer licensee may not apply for an East River deer license in the initial or second drawing. A successful East River deer licensee may not apply for a leftover East River special any deer license. No person may make application for or receive the special any deer license provided for in this section unless the following conditions are met:
