    If you receive a ticket for not being certifed in Hunter Education, you have 90 days to successfully complete the course and the ticket will be dismissed.

      Or you could just give them a ticket for not caring. I and many others actually went through the effort to be legal, they were lazy and didn't care and they get a free pass? Why? All you're doing is promoting them to not do the Hunters Education, because they now know they wont get a ticket.

      @@propbraker if they take the class then they are educated. That’s the point of the law. To modify the behavior of the population based on the interest of the state. It isn’t about punishment. It’s about the greater social interest and being better. We all weren’t born perfect.

    Unrestricted harvest of animals led to the demise and near extinction of many species at the turn of the century. This is a documented historical fact. This reality led to the establishment of laws regulating the harvest of game and protection of other animals. These regulations and their support by law abiding citizens has led populations to rebound, continue to be a integral part of the natural world and exist to the benefit of present and future generations.

    You do not have to have hunter education certification to buy a hunting license in Texas.

      Thanks for checking. Landowners and their designated agents can control feral hogs causing property damage by any legal means without benefit of a hunting license. However, for those individuals that are hunting feral hogs solely for recreational purposes, a Texas hunting license is required. If in doubt, consult with your local game warden. You can find game wardens by county at tpwd.texas.gov/warden/
