#2 – From WVDNR – West Virginia hunters and anglers must purchase new licenses and stamps for the 2026 season
The West Virginia Division of Natural Resources says hunters and anglers must buy new licenses and stamps for the 2026 season to remain compliant with state regulations. By purchasing licenses and stamps early in the year, sportsmen and women also maximize the value of their investment. License revenue is crucial, directly funding essential programs such as wildlife management, habitat restoration, public access, law enforcement and education.
