What this bill does
Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau
This bill eliminates the Department of Natural Resources's authority under the
wolf depredation program to make payments for death or injury caused by wolves to
hunting dogs.
Under current law, DNR administers a wolf depredation program under which
it makes payments to persons who apply for reimbursement for death or injury
caused by wolves to livestock, to hunting dogs other than those being actively used
in hunting of wolves, and to pets and for management and control activities
conducted by DNR to reduce damage caused by wolves.
