HARRISBURG, Pa. — The Pennsylvania Game Commission said a computer glitch that went unnoticed and the vendor falling behind schedule are among the reasons some hunting licenses have been slower to arrive.

Game commission officials said some hunters who bought their licenses online may have been impacted in submitting applications for antlerless deer licenses.

The agency said the contracted vendor responsible for mailing licenses to people who bought them online had run behind schedule. Officials also said a computer glitch that was not discovered right away caused the vendor to also misplace some of the online sales records.

The agency urges anyone impacted to contact the game commission for help at 717-787-2084 or by email at pgclicdiv@pa.gov.
