Nuisance Wildlife Control Operator (NWCO)
11 Things you can do to reduce problems with nuisance wildlife
Internet Center for Wildlife Damage Management
Program Background
The Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation (ODWC) is
mandated to manage, protect, and perpetuate Oklahoma’s wildlife.
ODWC issues permits to landowners, lessees or their designated
agents to control nuisance or damage by regulated species of
wildlife or feral hogs. The NWCO program was developed to
provide assistance to the public who encounter such problems.
The NWCO program was not developed to address complex damage
situations or problems with any and all forms of domestic or
imported non-native wildlife, migratory birds, or any Federally
protected species. The Wildlife Services (WS) program of the
United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) is authorized, in
both Federal and State law, to take necessary action in
assisting any landowner in management and control of rodents,
non-game birds, feral pigeons and furbearers on their property.
Oklahoma laws generally grant citizens substantive latitude to
deal with wildlife problems and considerable assistance is
available from USDA Wildlife Services. However, many landowners
may prefer to employ individuals who are skilled and educated in
handling human/wildlife conflicts. Although permitted and
regulated by the ODWC, Nuisance Wildlife Control Operators (NWCOs)
are not state employees. They operate either as private
enterprises and normally charge a fee or solicit a donation for
their services; or are employed by city or county governments.
The NWCO program was also developed to provide ODWC with a
record of activities of those responding to nuisance wildlife
calls/complaints and a reference base of various wildlife
species; the types of problems that they cause and the frequency
of such human conflicts. Additionally, the program provides
documentation of the various methods used for addressing
wildlife damage and human/wildlife conflicts.
