Often overlooked in the rush of fall hunting seasons is how hunting and fishing licenses help fund wildlife work.
In Georgia, each license sold – even a one-day $5 combo – returns to the state that license fee plus as much as $45 in federal excise taxes paid by hunters and anglers on gear, ammo and related purchases.
For license buyers, there’s even more. In addition to hunting and fishing privileges, a license offers access to more than 1 million acres of DNR wildlife management and public fishing areas.
When buying a license at gooutdoorsgeorgia.com, users also can easily donate to the Georgia Wildlife Conservation Fund by rounding up a purchase, donating directly or picking the Wild about Georgia package, which bundles a one-day license with a donation. The fund was created by state law to help conserve native wildlife not legally fished for or hunted, plus rare plants and natural habitats.
Whether you like to hunt, fish, watch wildlife or all of the above, buying a license is the best deal for you and wildlife.

ONLINE CAUTION
Some DNR customers recently received an email from an app that wrongly claimed affiliation with the agency. The only trusted online site to buy a license and find regulations information is gooutdoorsgeorgia.com or the Go Outdoors Georgia app.
