Victoria Game Licence Practice Test 2026
Anyone who hunts game in Victoria needs a Game Licence from the Game Management Authority (GMA). Depending on what you hunt, you must pass the Waterfowl Identification Test (WIT), the Hound Hunting Test or the gamebird education module tests. These questions cover the licence rules and test formats. The WIT itself is a video bird ID test, so also study duck identification videos. This is safety, law and ethics education only.
