Hunting Licenses

Great Question and sometimes difficult to understand when the answer might vary depending on what state you are hunting in.  In Idaho the answer is provided by statute found in Idaho Code 36-401 which states “No person shall hunt trap or fish for or take any wild animal, bird, or fish of this state, without first having procured a license as hereinafter provided.”   So, no matter what weapon you are using you will need a hunting license to hunt for and shoot ground squirrels with all weapons including a bow.
