Washington DC DC Wildlife Information

District of Columbia Wildlife Commission: 202 208-4717

District of Columbia Game WardenIf you have any questions about the wildlife of Washington DC, you can contact the District of Columbia Wildlife Commission, sometimes called the District of Columbia Fish & Wildlife Agency. District of Columbia game wardens address many wildlife management matters, from hunting licenses, to poaching, endangered species, and Washington DC wildlife management. They deal with wild animals outside the range of a pest control company, such as cougars or bears. If you have a problem with nuisance wildlife in Washington DC like squirrels, snakes, bats, or raccoons, the state agency is very unlikely to help. You need to hire a private company (here are their prices) such as ACS Wildlife Removal at 202-754-8770.


I also have listed several sources for free Washington DC wildlife help. One example, if you've found an injured animal or lost baby bird or other baby animal is the Washington DC Wildlife Rehabilitation Clinic: 202-882-1000 Or just read below for more info about the wild animals of Washington DC.
