Harvest reporting program; establish for white-tailed deer.

Summary

The bill would require the Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries and Parks to set up a mandatory electronic system for reporting white‑tailed deer harvests, using tools such as a smartphone app or web portal. It also permits a similar tagging and reporting program for turkey and imposes fines and administrative fees for hunters who fail to report. The department must submit an annual report to the legislature, and the program cannot be funded from the department’s regular appropriations.
