Wildlife Rehabilitation Renewal and Annual Report Information

Welcome to the new online Wildlife Rehabilitator permit renewal process. This form will replace the previous paper renewal and annual report. Fields with a red star are required before the system will allow you to proceed to the next tab of the application. The Annual Report input pages are located on a later tab. If you keep records in excel or on a paper form you will have the option to upload the saved files in the online form or you can mail me a copy to my address listed below.  It is recommended that you gather your records for data entry purposes before beginning the application, otherwise if you don't use the save function you will have to restart your application if you were to close the form session.  

If you have any questions please contact the wildlife permits office at wildlifepermits@wlf.la.gov or by phone 225-765-2975 Monday through Thursday from 8:00AM to 4:30 PM. Please leave a voicemail after hours and we will return calls in the order received.

Thanks
