Not quite. The game belongs to the people of the individual states and the states are allowed to manage hunting and the sale of licenses as they see fit. United States Outfitters (USO) took a couple of the western states to court over license sales to non-residents and the SCOTUS slapped them down and found in favor of the states. This was about 7 years ago and the states in question were AZ and NM. Look it up.
