The Pennsylvania Game Commission announces that hunting and furtaker licenses for the 2025-26 seasons will be available for purchase starting Monday, June 23. Notably, residents can secure an antlerless deer license if they purchase it before 8 a.m. on July 14, guaranteeing their access based on their Wildlife Management Unit (WMU).
After July 14, the availability of antlerless licenses transitions to a first-come, first-served basis for non-residents. In addition to regular hunting licenses, the commission allows hunters in specific southeastern WMUs to hold up to 15 unfilled licenses at a time, addressing the challenges posed by urban development in those areas. The public can track remaining license availability in real time on the commission’s website, encouraging timely purchases.
