Foremost is the conservation stamp, which is required by almost all hunters and anglers in addition to their license, having its first price increase since its inception in 1983. When you factor in the convenience of never having to buy the stamp again, it now becomes a very good deal and a heck of a gift. Unlike lifetime small game and fishing licenses, the lifetime conservation stamp can be purchased by both residents and nonresidents. 2001 conservation stamps, along with small game, mountain lion and fishing licenses will be available at Wyoming license agents beginning Dec. 20. The application fee has been eliminated for limited quota big game licenses bought over the counter following the drawings.
Hunters can now apply as a party.
Prices include application fee. Youth deer does not change. The bison application period is now Jan. 1-31. Thanks to landowner Mary Mattern s cooperation and patience, Colorado River cutthroat trout have been returned to the Little Snake River.
