End Of Waterproof License Paper For Hunters And Anglers

The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife is shifting away from waterproof, tear-resistant license paper for hunting and fishing licenses, encouraging the use of mobile licensing instead. This change is part of a larger trend among fish and wildlife agencies nationwide, aiming to provide more convenient and modern licensing options. Hunters and anglers can now buy licenses, report harvests, and display their licensing products directly from their mobile devices, offering an improved experience with enhanced data quality for fish and wildlife managers.
