Understand all game laws are subject to change to comply with the conservation needs.


The hunter is but a tool of the conservation.





Most states allow land owners and or leasers and or their children who reside on the land to hunt and or fish with out a license.


Most states exclude hunting leases, there by requiring the hunting lease holders to have a hunting license.


But most states do require all big game or migratory birds that are hunted to have the stamp or tags if required in that state.





All states have set up seasons to allow a recovery for the species that is being hunted.


All Game laws as to seasons and bag limits are enforced on all land inside the borders of said state.





Lease or ownership of the land is just that, The land not the wildlife.


All wildlife is classified property of the State as a natural resource.


To protect this and preserve the future of our ecosystem stringent guide lines are in place.


Seasons for wildlife and or the Endangered species classification is enforced on state and privet lands.





With only one exclusion, Wildlife Department personnel and or their agents trained and appointed by the Department of Wildlife will crop those in the classification of Big Game species and or Endangered Species only after their agents prove depredation exist out side the excepted limits.





That does exclude self defense, Self defense on wildlife is hard to win, and in most cases


Unless you can show a victim with bite marks or other physical evidence of being mauled


Such actions will be prosecuted as poaching and or willful destruction.


This was implemented to prevent Large Predators from willful and wrongful act of violence with out just cause, just because it growls and or charges and individual is not an attack in the laws views.

In most states, if you are indeed the landowner, you can go to any licensing facility and get a landowner permit. Sometimes you may have to go to the courthouse to get one. If you're hunting on your own land but it is NOT in your name, you'll need a license.


Trust me, I know. I have to pay the non-resident fee of $160 every November to hunt on my own farm in Wisconsin.





You should contact your local DNR office though.
