It is a good idea to purchase your hunting license on-line at www.maine.gov/ifw before you arrive in camp. There are several locations in Maine where a hunting license can be purchased, but remember proof of previously holding an adult hunting license or proof of taken a safety course is required to purchase a big game license in Maine.
