KDWP website expands

? Not only does the Wildlife and Parks offer a number of licenses, permits, stamps, publications and other issues online at the agency’s website, turkey and deer hunters can download permit applications from the website, www.kdwp.state.ks.us.

Currently, nonresident deer applications are online. This same application is also used for Kansas landowners and tenants who want to apply for a transferrable permit during the nonresident application period that will end on May 31.

Resident applications for any-deer permits will be online in mid-June. Area brochures, Walk-In Hunting Area maps, a fishing forecast, park information and many other items are also available on the site.

While the online sale items are slightly more expensive than over the counter due to the cost of online credit card verification permit applications and other materials are free.

Outdoorsmen and women are taking advantage of this service with greater frequency each month, according to department officials.
