I've finally got a break from school so I'm getting off my butt and getting my wildlife rehab license! (And hopefully getting back into raising and releasing squirrels. :Love_Icon) I'm planning on requesting the study packet today, my only issue is I have no idea which of the many numbers on the FWC website to call for it. Sorry for the bother, but I figured I'd try asking before I call in case there is a certain number to call. :3 I did try going through the pages for getting the license looking for it, but I did not end up anywhere that sounded like the number I should call. It's too early in the morning for me. :D

This is where I'm looking:

I'm really interested in getting my license as well... I've been doing what I can over the years with the little ones my family/friends find in need but it would be nice to get a license :D.

The test section doesn't look too difficult, most of the questions have common sense answers. And calling FWC for the study guide was definitely easy peasy. ;D

Yes, our NY exam is the same way -- Bird-centric -- and the one question I blew was an avian question. Get your accipitriforms all figured out...:D

I'm definitely not a bird person either, if anything it's the bird questions I'll have to study. :tilt
