This is the government animal control services operating in Lancaster County and sponsored by the city of Lincoln. This agency typically deals with domestic animal issues involving dogs and cats. This includes things like dangerous dogs, stray cats, pet adoptions, etc. However, this agency will sometimes lend assistance with wildlife concerns. Call 402-441-7900 and ask if they will assist with your wildlife problem. To increase the chance of success, do not lie, but if applicable, state that the problem is a public health matter in Lincoln, or that you feel the public safety is at risk, perhaps due to the spread of rabies or other diseases.
This is NOT a government agency. It is privately run, and operates on volunteer donations. This is a wildlife rehabber facility that deals strictly with wild animals. They may be able to help you with your wildlife problem, depending on the type of problem. The level of help might depend on their resources at the time. They will almost surely help in any case of an injured wild animal, or an orphaned baby animal, such as a baby squirrel or bird that fell out of a tree, or a baby opossum, etc. Please treat Lincoln Wildlife Rehabilitation kindly and donate if you are able to.
This is the statewide government wildlife agency in Nebraska, using your tax dollars to address wildlife issues. Sometimes called the Nebraska Fish & Wildlife Agency. Nebraska game wardens address many wildlife management matters, from hunting licenses, to poaching, endangered species, and yes, wildlife management. They deal with wild animals outside the range of a pest control company, such as cougars or bears. But they also have resources that may apply to your wildlife problem. To increase the chance of success, state that the problem is a public health matter in Nebraska perhaps due to the spread of rabies or other diseases.
Yes, the Lincoln police department will sometimes help with wildlife problems! I've seen many cases of the cops chasing down an errant bat in your house or snake in your pool! To increase the chance of success, never lie to the police dispatcher, but if applicable, state that you feel your personal safety is at risk, or the problem is a public safety matter in Lincoln, or a public health issue perhaps due to the spread of rabies or other diseases. Success may come down to whether or not a police officer wants to show up to this call, or is available. It's not always consistent.

Lincoln Wildlife Tip:
Snake in house help - Most snakes that are in a house can be picked up and removed without much drama. The majority of snakes are nonvenomous and scared, and they can all bite but won't do so unless they feel provoked. If you have a nonvenomous snake in your home, confine it to a single room and the attempt to pick it up. You can use your hands if you don't have an issue being so close to the animal. Professionals will use snake hooks, a long rod with a hook on the end. If you have a similar tool that will not injure the snake, feel free to use it. Your only objective is to get the animal into a pillowcase. The pillowcase trick is fantastic because it will calm most snakes down immediately. Without a visual target, the snake resigns to confinement and can be transported with little worry. A venomous snake in the house will require professional help. Most bites in North America occur because someone was trying to pick up a snake or kill it. You may severely underestimate the striking range of a venomous snake. This is one situation where a professional is your best option.
