Dear alligator harvest permit holder:

The FWC is offering alligator harvest training classes across the state from July 25 to August 11. These free classes are not mandatory, but those who are new to alligator hunting or haven’t attended a class recently are strongly encouraged to attend. The classes cover rules and regulations, equipment and methods, safety, and more. Plus, if you need supplies, alligator harvest equipment vendors are often on site at the classes.

Registration is not required.
