Falconry is currently regulated by both state and the federal governmental entities. In Texas, falconry is under the jurisdiction of the Texas Parks & Wildlife Department. On the federal level, falconry is under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The federal government sets the minimum standards for falconry nationally. States which allow the practice of falconry must comply with these minimum requirements, but can also add additional requirements as they see fit. In short, if you meet the state of Texas requirements, you will automatically meet the federal requirements. This does NOT mean that you should ignore the federal regulations. Read them! Below are links to the Texas Parks & Wildlife Department's falconry regulations. There are also links to TPWD's home page and permits page.
