The Louisiana Wildlife and Fisheries Commission (LWFC) passed a notice of intent (NOI) that will allow persons requiring a basic hunting license 16 and older to earn their hunter education certification completely online during its monthly meeting Thursday (June 4) in Baton Rouge.

Traditional classroom courses and the online course with a field day will still be available for all students preferring these formats, and the only options available for those ages 10-15.
