New rules are in effect for purchasing hunting and fishing licenses in Texas. As of Monday, customers aged 17 and older must provide valid identification to buy a recreational license. This change applies to both Texans and out-of-state customers.

The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department is behind the new rules. Further details about the requirements can be found through the department or local news sources. For those looking to purchase a hunting or fishing license, it is now necessary to have a valid ID on hand.
