Hunting license sales down slightly through the first half of the fiscal year in Pennsylvania
Published: , in Outdoor News
Sales of general hunting licenses in Pennsylvania declined by nearly 2% in the first half of the fiscal year, with a total of 820,086 licenses sold from mid-June through Nov. 30.
The 1.79% drop reflects that 14,913 fewer hunters had purchased licenses than during the same pre-firearms period in 2023, according to Pennsylvania Game Commission data. Agency spokesman Travis Lau called the decline “significant” and noted that it is part of a downward trend in hunting participation that began in 1982.
