Hunter Safety Course

Free

with Gary Proulx

Calendar Mar 4, 2025 at 6 pm, runs for 2 weeks

Taking a hunter safety course is the first step to joining a wonderful community of conservationists! Hunters have a longstanding role helping to keep wildlife populations at healthy levels and giving biologists valuable harvest data. Hunters also provide funding for wildlife management through the purchase of their licenses and a manufacturer-paid tax on firearms and ammunition. Without hunters, it would not be possible for the department to closely monitor and protect game and non-game species in our state. Maine offers some of the best hunting opportunities in the country. With over 17 million acres of extraordinary land and waterways, there are so many options to explore.
