That is totally not true. She needs to check regulations in other states before she makes a blanket statement like that. In Kansas, where I live, we hunt our own land and are not required to have a hunting license. However, we do still have to buy a deer carcass tag and are still reuired to have a hunter safety certificate. Check your local regulations. It will clearly tell you whether you have to have a license or not. It will be in the dept of wildlife and parks webpage not dept of natural recources. A hunting license is not the same as a carcass tag or hunter safety card.
Edit for hangfire. A hunting license allows you to hunt anything, you still have to buy permits like the deer carcass tag or a turkey carcass tag or an elk tag, and so on. They are not the same thing. You are required to have a license in Kansas if you are hunting on publi property or hunting on private property that is not owned by you or a relative.
Annie Oakleaf, would have provided a link to dept of wildlife and parks if I knew how. Sorry not that advanced yet. What are you talking about not owning the animals, when they step onto your property and you have a carcass tag, and they're in season, you are allowed to shoot them. No ifs, ands, or buts. No hunting license required.And yes I am talking about Ks. Thats why I told him to check his local regulastions.
