(e) Every court having jurisdiction of an offense committed in violation of an Indiana law for the protection of wildlife may, at the court's discretion, revoke the license of the offender for at least one (1) year.

(1) Obtain the license certificate of the defendant.
(2) Return the license certificate to the division.
