Department of Natural Resources requires separate paperwork for spring, fall seasons

To hunt wild turkey in Indiana, residents need a resident turkey hunting license and a valid game bird habitat stamp privilege.

Those who have a lifetime comprehensive hunting, lifetime comprehensive hunting and fishing or youth hunt/trap license can hunt turkey and do not need to purchase the game bird habitat stamp because it is included with those license types.

A separate turkey hunting license is required when hunting during each turkey hunting season — one for the spring season and one for the fall season.

Game bird habitat stamp privileges are good for both spring and fall seasons in the same calendar year.
