CHEYENNE—The public is invited to the 42nd annual Wyoming Game and Fish Conservation Stamp Art Show at 5:30 p.m. Friday, April 25. This educational event will be held virtually and broadcast live online on the Game and Fish YouTube channel. 

This year’s art show features the American pika.

The pika is known for its ability to communicate with other members of its colony and emit high-pitched warning calls to signal potential threats. Despite how loud they are, they are small and range in size from 6.5-8 inches long. Pika are found in alpine and subalpine habitats and are often found in talus fields or rock slide areas near coniferous forests. They are herbivores and cut leaves and plants to create hay piles, which are stored under boulders for winter forage.

“We’re excited to host the 2025 Wyoming Conservation Stamp Art Competition, and showcase the incredible entries we received this year,” said Chris Martin, Game and Fish visual communications supervisor and coordinator of this year’s contest. “There are a lot of great entries, and we will also be taking votes for the People’s Choice Award, so be sure to tune in and let us know who you think needs to win.”

This year’s contest is sponsored by the WYldlife Fund. 

Adult contest winners: The winning image will be featured on the 2026 collectible conservation stamp. The top five receive a monetary award, including $3,500 for the winner. Game and Fish will offer the winning stamps as a collectible item, which can be purchased through the both in-person at the Cheyenne gift shop or on the online Game and Fish Store. 

Youth contest winners: The top three from each grade level will receive a monetary award of $50 to $150. 

Winning and honorable mention entries for both contests will be displayed at the Game and Fish’s Cheyenne Headquarters through May 17.
