Hunter safety education card

The New Mexico Department of Game and fish requires anyone under the age of 18 to complete a State approved Hunter Education Course in order to apply for or purchase a firearms hunting license in the State of New Mexico.

Become a safe hunter

The purpose of hunter education is to develop knowledge, skills, and behaviors necessary to become safe, responsible hunters.

The online course

Typically, students meet these needs by attending a traditional, instructor led course including classroom lectures and field/range experiences. In today's society, students have less free time to devote to attending a hunter education course. Online hunter education courses help address this, by allowing students to take hunter safety courses on their own time, at their own pace and in the comfort of their home or office.
