Bill Summary

Relative to the hunting of coyotes with artificial light. Environment, Natural Resources and Agriculture.

AI Summary

This bill amends existing law, specifically section 68 of chapter 131 of the General Laws, to explicitly include "coyote" in the list of animals that can be hunted with artificial light, alongside "raccoon." This change allows for the hunting of coyotes using artificial light, which was previously not specified in this particular section of the law.
