Hunting and fishing on lands of others; revise provisions relating to and provide penalties for.

HB 1208 strengthens Mississippi laws against hunting, fishing, shooting, or trapping on someone else's land without permission. The bill makes it a misdemeanor to enter private property for these activities without the landowner's consent or accompaniment by an authorized agent. Penalties for a first violation include a fine between $500 and $1,000, while repeat offenders within five years face higher fines and a one-year suspension of their hunting and fishing licenses. Additionally, the law requires convicted individuals to pay restitution to the landowner for each animal or fish taken, with a maximum total payment of $1,500.
