BEAR
BASIN OUTFITTERS will
assist you in applying for any species you wish to hunt
by helping you complete the application process if you
need help doing so.
A non-resident must apply for
a hunting license in a drawing and be successful in that
drawing before being eligible to hunt in Wyoming.
The exception to this is a black
bear and mountain lion tag can be purchased over the
counter at any retail outlet that sales Wyoming hunting
licenses or from the WY G&F Department.
Applications to apply for any
big game animal license can be obtained either from the
WY G&F Department or the application can be printed
out on the WY G&F Department’s website. I have added
a link to that website on our site to help you locate
the applications easier.
Please note that each application
deadline is date sensitive and you MUST apply before
the deadline expires. However there often are “leftover”
tags for some species after the initial drawing takes
place and these tags become available in a second drawing
with new deadline dates.

There often are cow elk and doe
deer licenses available over the counter that are tags
that remain after both the first and second drawing have
taken place. These are easy tags to purchase if a hunter
wants to add an additional species to hunt or if you just
like to hunt to fill the freezer.
The following is an exert from
the Wyoming G&F Department website that gives you
some further direction for applying for big game animals
in Wyoming. It also provides you with a chart with approximate
dates for applying for each particular species. There
are discounted rates for “youth” licenses. See their website
for greater detail.
Section
1. DATES AND DEADLINES. Applications and fees must arrive
at the Wyoming Game and Fish Department, Cheyenne, Wyoming
by 5 P.M. on the application deadline to be valid regardless
of the postmark date. If the deadline date is on a day
when the Cheyenne Headquarters office is closed for normal
business hours (weekends, holidays, and so forth), applications
received by 5 P.M. on the next business day at the Cheyenne
Headquarters office will be accepted as meeting the application
deadline date. All applications received after that time
and date will be rejected and returned to the applicant
after the respective drawings have been conducted.
Applications received after the application period
shall not be accepted. For example, the nonresident application
period for DEER is January 1 through March 15; so an application
must be received sometime during those dates.
