License Types

Furtakers need either a Furtaker’s License or a Hunting License for Furbearers. Licenses are available for sale on June 1.

• A Furtaker’s License allows the holder to trap, hunt, and pursue.
• A Hunting License for Furbearers allows the holder only to hunt and pursue.
• A unique brand number will be issued to a person the first time they obtain a license. Like the Oregon Hunter/Angler ID number, the brand number is assigned to the individual furtaker for life.
• A general hunting license does not allow the holder to trap, hunt, or pursue furbearers but only to hunt unprotected mammals.
