| The Oklahoma Department of Wildlife
Conservation receives no general state tax revenues and is proud
to be funded entirely by sportsmen. We take our responsibility
seriously to conserve the state’s wildlife for future
generations and provide you with the best recreational
opportunities possible. Every time you purchase a hunting or fishing license in Oklahoma, you are helping fund wildlife conservation in our state. The majority of the Department’s money is obtained through the sale of licenses. These monies go toward managing the fish and game species across the state. When you provide habitat for one species, all species in the area benefit--from largemouth bass to turtles, from white-tailed deer to song birds--all species are helped. Buying licenses has helped bring back the wild turkey to populations rivaling those found here around the turn of the 20th century. It has helped bring fish species to our state that our fathers could only dream of: striped bass, saugeye, trout and hybrid stripers (a cross between white bass and striped bass). There are over 700 license dealers spread across the state-- from sporting goods stores to bait shops, from convenience stores to large discount centers-- everyone can find a place that sells a license. Non-residents may also order licenses including a nonresident lifetime fishing license directly from the Wildlife Department by calling (405) 521-3852. Monday-Friday, 8:00 a.m. till 4:30p.m. (Visa or MasterCard only. Allow for mailing time to receive your license). You can now purchase your license online! There is a $3.00 convenience fee to use the online application. you simply apply and print your license. You will not have to wait for your license in the mail.
