SOUTH CHARLESTON, W.Va. – The West Virginia Division of Natural Resources (DNR) advises trappers and hunters to obtain a CITES seal for each bobcat and river otter pelt from animals harvested in West Virginia. The plastic seal is necessary only if the pelts will be shipped out of the state. Federal law requires the seal on all bobcat and river otter pelts if they will eventually be shipped to international markets such as those in Canada. The seals must be obtained from the state in which the animals were harvested.
