Purchase License

Are you passionate about Alabama's great outdoors?

If you do not hunt or fish and are passionate about nature, consider becoming a conservationist with the purchase of a Wildlife Heritage License. Funding generated through license sales not only helps Alabama’s wildlife, it benefits all Alabamians through clean water, land conservation, habitat management, and abundant wildlife.

The Wildlife Heritage License is the perfect way to assist the Alabama Department of Conservation and Natural Resources in its efforts to protect and conserve the state's wildlife and natural resources for generations to come.

Whether it be birding, nature photography, hiking, kayaking, mountain biking, utilizing the state’s public shooting ranges, or wildlife watching, you understand the important role the outdoors plays in our lives.

Let nature be your legacy by pairing the Wildlife Heritage License with a Collectible License Card. The hard card shows everyone that you are investing in Alabama's future conservation efforts.

A $13.30 Wildlife Heritage License paired with a $7 Collectible License Card supports public land and wildlife habitat in Alabama.
