This course is for new Wildlife Control Agents (WCA). The course will provide you with the rules and regulations that govern the WCA program, information on euthanasia, safe handling of wildlife, and a variety of other information useful for WCA’s. Agents must pass a closed book examination and a background check prior to being licensed. Once you have received your WCA license and depredation permit books you may begin operating in a WCA capacity. Thank you for expressing an interest in this course, however, please understand that the demand for the Wildlife Control Agent Course is high. The course is filled on a first come first serve basis.
