Revise laws for hunting licenses lotteries

Added Shiras moose to the list of species eligible for lottery-issued licenses, expanding the program beyond mountain sheep.

Clarified that all proceeds from the lottery must be used for the substantial benefit of the specific species (mountain sheep or moose) and must be used in addition to existing management funds.

Authorized wildlife conservation organizations to conduct the lottery in place of the commission, with a provision allowing them to retain up to 10% of proceeds for expenses.

Established a delayed effective date of March 1, 2026, for the new provisions.

Updated the list of bill sponsors by replacing 'M. Fox' with 'P. Fielder'.

Adjusted the spacing in the section header for the mountain sheep license auction.

The bill number was changed from LC 3871 to HB 283.1 and the document header was updated to reflect an 'Authorized Print Version'.

The list of bill sponsors was expanded to include additional names (e.g., T. Running Wolf, L. Schubert) compared to the previous version.

Page numbering and footer text were updated to match the new authorized print format, but the legal text of the amendments to MCA sections 87-2-722 and 87-2-724 is unchanged.
