N.D. Cent. Code § 20.1-10-06
Whenever any person makes a complaint to any judge having authority to issue warrants in criminal cases that the person knows or has good reason to believe that any wild animal, bird, or fish, or any part thereof, taken, killed, or possessed contrary to this title, is concealed in any particular house or place, or in the living quarters of any person, the judge shall examine such complainant on oath, reduce the complaint to writing, describing as particularly as possible the place where such wild animal, bird, or fish, or part thereof, is alleged to be concealed, and cause such written complaint to be subscribed by the complainant. If it appears to the judge there is reasonable cause to believe that the facts alleged in the complaint are true, the judge shall issue a warrant containing the substance of the complaint and the description of the premises. This warrant must require the officer to whom it is directed forthwith to search such premises; to seize any wild animal, bird, or fish, or part thereof, found on such premises; and to bring them and the person in whose possession they are found, before the judge who issued the warrant, or before some other judge having jurisdiction.
