LINCOLN, Neb. — The National Wildlife Control Training Program has published National Wildlife Control Training Program, volume 2.

The National Wildlife Control Training Program (NWCTP) provides core principles and training techniques for wildlife control.

A brand new second volume focuses on the latest control methods for common species.

Volume 2 contains biology, damage, and management suggestions for 29 species commonly found in the U.S. The authors discuss only the techniques necessary for successful control of these species in real-world conditions. Like volume 1, this volume is certified by the National Wildlife Control Operators Association.
