Natural resources: hunting; year-round coyote hunting season; provide for. Amends sec. 43531 of 1994 PA 451 (MCL 324.43531).
This bill amends Michigan's Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act to clarify that fur harvester license holders may hunt coyotes year-round. It directly affects licensed hunters who hold a fur harvester's license, removing ambiguity about year-round coyote hunting eligibility. The key change updates Section 43531(4) to explicitly permit year-round coyote hunting under the existing license framework, without altering fees or other license requirements.
