Yes, no hunting license is required for varmints in Wyoming. But if you were born after 1964 you must have a hunters education card with you when shooting varmints to present to a game officer if he asks for it.

Just making sure nobody gets a ticket.

I had to turn mine in when I got my license years ago, so last year I retook my hunters ed with my son to get a card.

Dale,

Thank you...good catch. I'm going through and adding that to the forums where we have posted.

Here is the link to their FAQ page dealing with the subject...if you are using a firearm to shoot P-Dogs, and you were born after 1965, you must have a valid Hunter Safety Certificate.

Though no license is required, do you need to buy a conservation stamp??

I just called Wyoming Game and Fish at 307-777-4600 and was told "no." Also refer to page 42 of the 2010 Wyoming Big Game License Application Booklet.

It would be a good thing to do however as it does help the Game Management departments and the cost is only $12.50.

Sheriff, You are welcome, Sir. I may be one page off however: this time I found it on page 43:

http://gf.state.wy.us/downloads/pdf/10appbooklet/10NR42-44.pdf

The distinguishing language that is pertinent is "each person LICENSED to hunt or fish in Wyoming must purchase (1) Conservation Stamp for $12.50..."

Because a LICENSE is not required to shoot Prairie Dogs the Conservation Stamp requirement does not apply.

Still, I urge those that attend the prairie dog shoot to buy the Conservation Stamp. Wyoming is one of the last "best" hunting states in the lower 48 and we can help it stay strong in that way.

It looks like the moderators over at the Beartooth Bullet forum are not exactly enthralled about the MOA shoot. With lots of competition for our cast bullet dollars, it should be noted.
