If you are interested in wildlife rehabilitation, and especially interested in becoming a licensed wildlife rehabilitator, then you will want to attend a Wildlife Rehabilitation Training Course.
The next offering of the course will be at Mercer County Community College on November 3-7, 2014.
This course is an alternative route to meet a portion of New Jersey State permitting requirements for wildlife rehabilitators. Successful completion of the course will count for 40 hours toward the 200-hour New Jersey apprenticeship permitting requirement.
This course is available to anyone wishing to gain knowledge about native New Jersey wildlife.

The course includes wildlife rehabilitation history, licensing requirements and regulations, mammal, bird and reptile species identification and anatomy, proper handling, care and nutrition, medical procedures, and much more.
The cost of the course is $499 and registration information can be obtained from Mercer County Community College by calling 609-570-3311.
