“This is meant to be a very basic class to introduce people to the idea of hunting and the first steps they can take to get them started on their journey,” said Nicki Wheaton, MDC conservation educator.
The online program will focus on the late summer through early winter hunting opportunities that Missouri offers. It will discuss the process and requirements to get Hunter Education certified, deadlines to register for managed hunts, different places to hunt, and upcoming programs that can help anyone take the first steps in their hunting journey.
New hunters can will learn about apprentice permits and mentored hunts. Of course, the variety of game Missouri has for hunters pursue; key hunting regulations will be featured as well. We will also discuss why hunting is important and different game you can hunt, regulations, mentored hunts, and programs that are coming up to take next steps.
