Ask Fish and Game

Q. My daughter is 10 and wants to hunt. How can she get the hunter education graduate license we have heard about? A. It's only free for graduates of an Idaho hunter education course who have never had a hunting license, age 10-17. Call your regional Fish and Game office and find out when the next registration day is. On that day, sign her up for a course. After successfully completing the course she will receive the free license. It is good for hunting upland game and waterfowl. It is not good for turkeys or sandhill cranes. If she is interested in hunting turkeys or sandhill cranes, she needs to get the Youth Small Game Hunting License for $6.50. For big game, she'll have to wait until she's 12 and get the Junior Hunting License.
