Does anyone know if you draw a Wyoming cow/calf bison tag, does that prevent you from drawing a bull bison tag in the future? I know the bull tags are once in a lifetime, but I didn't know if the cow tags counted against you. I looked in the regs, but couldn't seem to find an answer.
 
From the application booklet:

any person who is issued an “any wild bison” license (Type 1) and harvests a bull wild bison shall be ineligible to apply
for or receive an “any wild bison” license in any future year, but shall be eligible to apply for and receive a “female or calf
wild bison” license in the immediately following season. In addition, any person who is issued an “any wild bison” license
and harvests a female or calf wild bison shall be ineligible to apply for or receive a “female or calf wild bison” license in the
immediately following five (5) years, but shall be eligible to apply for and receive an “any wild bison” license in the
immediately following season. Any person who is issued a “female or calf wild bison” license (Type 4) and harvests a female
or calf wild bison shall be ineligible to apply for or receive an “any wild bison” license or a “female or calf wild bison” license
in the immediately following five (5) years.
 
Thanks! I remembered reading something like that a few months ago, but for some reason I couldn't find it again when I looked for it.
