Relates to the regulation of live restraint cable devices to take wildlife

This bill regulates the use of live restraint cable devices for trapping wildlife by authorizing the Department of Environmental Conservation to create specific rules for their use. It prohibits certain types of traps, such as those with teeth or nooses, while allowing the department to permit live cable devices for species like coyotes during a designated season starting December 1st. The regulations mandate that these devices include safety features like swivels and break-away mechanisms, require users to check traps every 24 hours, and mandate completion of a training course before use. The law takes effect immediately but is set to expire on February 16, 2026.
