Each year, the Kansas Wildlife and Parks Commission holds a random drawing for seven special big game hunting permits available only to nonprofit organizations focused on wildlife conservation and promoting hunting and fishing. Winning nonprofits may then sell the permit, keeping 15 percent of the sale price while the remaining 85 percent goes toward a conservation project mutually agreed to with the Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks. These special Commission Big Game Permits are authorized by K.S.A. 32-970.
