State Game Departments
&
State Falconry Clubs, Organizations
and Contact Information
UPDATED: Oct 08, 2011 All of these links & information is current as of the Update! Feel free to
send me a "Thank You" email for doing all the work! It took three full days
to verify and update the information I already had and several weeks to get
the rest of the information from each States Falconry Director.
Notes: If you have a link to a State's Falconry web page or your State's Falconry Club, Organization
or Association and it is not listed, please email me that information so I can add it to this
web page. If it's not listed here it is because I was unable to find it using search engines;
or the State did not have a page at the time I made the page, same goes for any Contact Info-
rmation! If you find there is an updated link, please also let me know! Thanks!
Please visit the actual links and go to that specific web page for the most current, up to
date information. Club Fees, Club Officials and other important information may change a bit
before I get the updated information listed here which is checked periodically.
A few of the pages are in PDF format. If you don't already have the FREE Adobe Acrobat Reader
you can get it here.

* Falconry is NOT allowed in Hawaii. The Wildlife Biologist and State Hunting Cooridinator
said that "it's due to the fact that we only have two native raptors in the state, the pueo
(Screech Owl) and the io (Hawaiian Hawk). Anything else would have to be imported, could
escape, and could add (more) problems to the non-native introductions category."
