Scott__aR trapper Joined: Dec 2020 Posts: 1,717 Wisconsin	Originally Posted by Guss I used to have a trapping license but didn't need one to trap my land. So last month I went to buy one and found out Wis. you are required to pass trapper Ed before you get a license. In Wisconsin your completed trapper education is your first years trapping license. As a resident landowner, you may trap certain species on your property without a trappers license. If you have had a Wisconsin trapping license in the past, you may purchase a Wisconsin trapping license. Non-residents require passing a Wisconsin trapper ed course or a comparable out-of-state trapper ed course as determined by the Wisconsin Cooperative Trapper Education Committee to purchase a license. Having checked my own record, Go Wild records go back to 1999. Anytime before that, I would guess that the burden of proof would be on you to produce an expired license. If it has 20+ years since you applied for a licensed to trap in Wisconsin, I would highly recommend taking the trapper ed class, online or in person, as a lot has changed since then.
