Hunter Education Class - Day Two

In Louisiana, all hunters over the age of 16 must have proof of having passed a Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries (LDW&F) Hunter Education class to hunt legally. Now you can complete the class in two days at St. John the Baptist Parish Library!

Students must be at least 10 years old to receive credit for this course. Children younger than 10 are not eligible to earn credit for the class but are still welcome to participate to learn important safety guidelines.

The Hunter Education course will involve an 8-hour instructional class and written exam on November 4, followed by 2-3 hours of shooting on November 5 for those who pass the written portion. The class focuses on gun safety, emergency survival, hunter ethics, and wildlife biology. The shooting portion will involve participants shooting air rifles (pellet guns) into a specially designed Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries trailer.
