What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, if the wolf is not listed on the federal endangered list and

is not listed on the state endangered list, the Department of Natural Resources must

allow the hunting and trapping of wolves. This bill provides that DNR may allow the

hunting and trapping of wolves but does not require it.
