Summary

The bill amends state law to forbid the Department of Game, Fish and Parks from using bounty money to kill animals such as badgers, raccoons, opossums, skunks, red foxes and similar species for nest‑predation control. It eliminates any existing or future bounty payments for those species. The change is intended to end the practice of paying hunters for wildlife removal aimed at protecting nests.
