the following in accordance with NR 12.10(3)(c):
a) A valid hunting or trapping license if shooting or trapping the
animal.
b) Written approval from the landowner, which includes:
• Name, address, and phone number of landowner and per-
son removing wild animals
• Property location and removal activities
• Authorized time period of removal
• Species of animals authorized for removal
• Signature of the landowner or lessee and date.



I am not familiar with what WI defines as game animals versus non game animals but the above does seem reasonable. But it only applies to non game animals. What about game animals?

Deer , Bear , Turkey all require a crop damage tag to be taken out of season , as I understand it anyone with a valid hunting license can work as the agent of the land owner yet but the land owner must apply for the crop damage tags.


America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

holding a hunting or trapping license is really their way of making sure the agent is legal to hunt or trap with minimal qualifications and person with back child support trying to find a way to hunt.

in WI they tied out hunting, fishing and trapping license numbers to SS so that they can track people owing back child support and you can't hunt , trap or fish till you pay up.

Sounds similar to what we have except that a WCA license is required to do any nuisance control work outside of season for compensation with the only exception being beaver. With a WCA license, we can write the permit to take the offending critter/s except for deer, bear or turkey and protected species. For deer, bear or turkey, we have to get a permit issued by a warden or biologist.

Two day class and test required to get WCA license and annual renewal. Quarterly reporting also.
