Bill Summary
An Act relating to game and fish; amending 29 O.S. 2021, Section 5-102, which relates to tagging of wildlife; exempting tag fee for tags for certain animals; and providing an effective date.
AI Summary
This bill amends existing law regarding the tagging of certain wildlife killed at commercial hunting areas, specifically by exempting the fee for tags for females of the Cervidae family (which includes deer), feral swine, and exotic wildlife not native to North America. The Oklahoma Wildlife Conservation Commission, the state agency responsible for managing wildlife, currently charges a fee of up to $10 for these tags, which are required to remain attached to the animal until it is consumed. This change aims to reduce costs for hunters pursuing these specific types of animals and will take effect on November 1, 2026.
