The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service issues Federal Migratory Bird Depredation Permits to individuals and entities for lethal take of Migratory Birds when conditions warrant. This take can include any migratory birds except for eagles and threatened and endangered species. These permits designate the species, methods, and the number of birds that may be taken, and are only valid for the individuals named on the permits, permit locations, and dates of the permit. Applicants who apply for a Migratory Bird Depredation Permit must apply to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Regional Office.<\/p>\n

Although the Texas Wildlife Services Program is not a regulatory program, we have a role in some regulatory processes. Texas Wildlife Services\u00a0will conduct damage evaluations to provide information to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the state wildlife agency as part of their permit processes. WS provides technical assistance to callers with migratory bird conflicts. In some cases, lethal take may be required to resolve these issues or reinforce the effectiveness of non-lethal dispersal. In such cases, WS biologists complete an evaluation form (Form 37) that describes the incident and documents our recommendations for management options. When lethal take is recommended, those forms are forwarded by the applicant with applications and application fee for Federal Migratory Bird Depredation Permits.<\/p>\n

The application process involves the following steps:<\/p>\n

Step 1. <\/strong>Contact your local Texas\u00a0Wildlife Services for technical assistance.
\nStep 2. <\/strong>If a permit is justified Texas Wildlife Services will issue\u00a0WS Form 37 to the requestor.
\nStep 3. <\/strong>The requestor must submit a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service form 3-200-13 Migratory Birds Depredation Permit application to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and include the form 37 and\u00a0the permit application fee.<\/p>\n
