S 1011 Idaho Senate · 68th Legislature, 1st Regular Session (2025)

FISH AND GAME – Amends existing law to provide requirements for members of winter feeding advisory committees.

Idaho's S 1011 amends wildlife management law to require that each winter feeding advisory committee for antelope, elk, and deer includes at least one agricultural producer (farmer or rancher) from the local district. The bill mandates that all five committee members must be residents of the district they serve, appointed by the state wildlife agency. Committees will advise on winter feeding programs and act as liaisons between the agency, landowners, and the public. The changes take effect July 1, 2025, for new appointments.
