Wildlife permits in CT rules?

I had baby squirrels that were taken away because where I live its apparently not acceptable to care for them without some wildlife permit. How would I go about getting one of those?The D.E.P website is a little confusing so does anyone else have any idea about that process?Wildlife permits in CT rules?
If you would like to devote your spare time to rehabilitating animals, go for it! That's a great thing, because often rehabilitators are overcrowded and overworked. I will caution you, though: it's a painfully hard process, and I wouldn't suggest it unless you wanted to make a career or be deeply involved.





First, you should probably volunteer with a rehabilitator to see if you really want this; it's not like a handler's liscence, which ';may come in handy,'; it's a deep investment.





After you've been volunteering, you'll have no trouble getting a rehabilitator to write you a letter of recommendation. Then, you need to provid proof of vetrinary services, meaning that you have a vet available in case a problem should happen.





Then, you'll need to attend a seminar and take an exam.


You'll also need a rabies shot, and possibly some other vaccinations.





I really commend you on this effort. I worked at a nature center, and thus have seen a LOT of animals that have had their lives messed up by ';Well-meaning'; people. Possums, squirrels, rabbits, birds... you name it. Good luck!Wildlife permits in CT rules?
