2009-2010 HUNTING AND FISHING LICENSES AVAILABLE

The wait is over for anglers and hunters who have been anxious to buy their 2009-2010 fishing and hunting licenses. Licenses and all stamps, including the state duck stamp, are available at Nevada Department of Wildlife offices and will be available at license vendors by March 1. The current license year ends Sat.

The Nevada Department of Wildlife (NDOW) protects, restores and manages fish and wildlife, promotes fishing, hunting, and boating safety. NDOW’s wildlife and habitat conservation efforts are primarily funded by sportsmen’s license and conservation fees and a Federal surcharge on hunting and fishing gear. Support wildlife and habitat conservation in Nevada by purchasing a hunting, fishing or combination license. For more information, visit www.ndow.org.
