HB 2 Wyoming House · 2019 General Session

Regulation of hunting methods.

HB 2 amends Wyoming's wildlife code to give the state wildlife commission explicit authority to regulate hunting methods, including technologies used to take wildlife. The bill directly affects the commission, which gains the power to create rules limiting or prohibiting specific hunting techniques. Key provisions establish this rulemaking authority under the statute, requiring the commission to develop and enforce regulations on how wildlife can be hunted. The law became effective July 1, 2019, without specifying particular technologies or restrictions.
