AI Summary
This bill establishes a new regulation for quail hunting in Oklahoma by limiting licensed hunters to bagging or possessing a maximum of seven quail per day, as determined by the Oklahoma Wildlife Conservation Commission. The bill specifically exempts hunters who are licensed to hunt upland game in commercial hunting areas from this daily limit restriction. The new regulation will be codified as Section 5-401.1 of Title 29 in the Oklahoma Statutes and will go into effect on November 1, 2025. By setting a specific daily bag limit, the bill aims to help manage and conserve the quail population in the state, ensuring sustainable hunting practices while providing some flexibility for commercial hunting areas.
