Game and Fish reminds hunters to carry conservation stamp

The Wyoming Game and Fish Department is reminding hunters getting ready for their Wyoming hunts they must have a conservation stamp before heading afield this fall. 

Licensed hunters must purchase a conservation stamp valid for 12 months. Holders of a daily hunting license are exempt. Refer to Wyoming Game and Fish Department regulations for specific license holders who are exempt. Lifetime license holders can purchase a lifetime conservation stamp.

Conservation stamps are $21.50 and can be purchased online, at any Game and Fish regional office or any Game and Fish license-selling agent. If bought online, hunters need to print or save their stamp to their mobile device. Stamps will not be mailed. 

According to the Game and Fish, funds raised from the conservation stamp are used to support habitat and wildlife projects in Wyoming. Hunters also can donate to Access Yes when purchasing a conservation stamp to support access to more lands for hunting. The department reports that every dollar donated equals 3.2 acres of public access.
