In 1985, The Oregon Legislature passed a statute requiring all trappers born after June 30, 1968 and all first time trappers to complete an approved trapper education course.
The course is not required of persons trapping on land owned or leased by that person, the person's immediate family, or a person's agent who is controlling damage to livestock or agricultural crops.
Courses are to be completed at home. Testing will take place at ODFW offices throughout the state. A furtakers license will be issued by the Salem ODFW office after the test has been successsfully completed and sent to Salem.
Course materials are available from the Hunter Education office by calling (503) 947-6028 or by sending your email request to: hunter.education@state.or.us. Learn more on trapping and conservation by reading the following handouts.
These programs are funded by the Federal Aid in Wildlife Restoration Act (Pittman-Robertson) and the Federal Aid in Sport Fish Restoration Act (Wallop-Breaux).
