Trophy Sale Permit
A Trophy Sale Permit authorizes the sale of lawfully taken and possessed individual dead wildlife specimens or their parts that are mounted, stuffed, or otherwise permanently preserved that may be sold under applicable statutes.
No part of any bear or wild turkey may be sold under the above provisions; however, permanently preserved bears or tanned bear hides and permanently preserved turkeys or turkey parts may be sold with a trophy sale permit.
The sale of migratory game birds is regulated by the US Fish and Wildlife Service.
Permit Restrictions, Rules and Conditions
Once the Trophy Sale Permit is received, a copy of the permit must be retained with the specimen listed on that permit.
