How can I earn an falconer's license?

Question

I am interested in earning a falconer's license. I've heard it takes two years and a lot of hard work. Does anyone know where I can train for this license? Places in New Hampshire are preferred, as I live there, however, I'm willing to meet with trainers throughout New England. Thanks in advance!

Hi there...Each state has different laws on working with falcons. Therefore, consider contacting your the New Hampshire/New England Fish and Game/Wildlife to learn how one goes about obtaining their falconers licence.

Here's an example info from California Fish & Game on how to obtain a falconers licence in this state: http://www.dfg.ca.gov/licensing/pdffiles/fg361a.pdf
