Eating certain beavers prohibition repealer
This bill repeals a prohibition on human consumption of beavers killed by government entities under specific circumstances. It directly affects road authorities, government units, and landowners who kill beavers to address property damage concerns during certain times. The key change removes the current rule (in Minnesota Statutes §97B.667, subd. 3(c)) that forbids eating beavers retained after killing them, allowing these entities to consume or dispose of the beaver as they choose. The bill does not alter the process for killing beavers or the requirement to notify conservation officers.
