Summary
The bill lets people trap feral hogs without a hunting or trapping license as long as the hog is killed immediately. It also creates a special wildlife‑control permit that allows residents to hunt or trap hogs at night with lights, from a vehicle, or on their own or leased agricultural land, even without a license. Violations are misdemeanors with fines and possible jail time.
