Here’s what you need to know if you wish to take a class:

• Anyone intending to trap wolves in Idaho must attend wolf trapper education prior to purchasing wolf trapping tags.
• Anyone intending to trap wolves that did not hold an Idaho trapping license prior to 2011 is required to take both trapper and wolf-trapper education courses. So, if that applies to you, check for upcoming trapper education classes as well.
