HUNTING LICENSES AVAILABLE ON THE NET

(11/22/2004)
Sometimes there's a line and a hassle getting out-of-state hunting licenses.

Now, out-of-state residents are using the Internet to buy West Virginia hunting licenses.

Buyers can print stamps and permits on a computer.

By last week, more than 15,000 resident and 12,000 nonresident hunting licenses had been sold on-line, a 21 percent increase from last year.

Gun season for deer runs through December 4.
