Libpcap and Super User mode

[Bowser Jason S Contr AFRL/IFTA <Jason.Bowser () wpafb af mil>]

Hello everyone
 
Is it possible to write a program using libpcap that doesnt need to be run in super user mode, and if there is how 
would that be done.  Everything that i have seen that uses libpcap has to be in su mode
