The Conservation First USA Big Game Super Draw is offering $10 raffle tickets for 17 tags, and the group just extended its purchasing deadline.

Thanks to hunters like you, nearly $13 million has been raised since 2006 through ticket sales. Every dollar is returned to the Arizona Game and Fish Department and managed by the Arizona Habitat Partnership Committee. With input from local habitat partners across the state and sponsoring organizations involved in the fundraising, project priorities are determined that provide the most benefit to each species.
The Arizona Game and Fish Department receives no general fund tax dollars. The majority of funding to manage more than 800 native wildlife species comes from Arizona's hunters and anglers.
