Under existing law, the Commissioner of Conservation and Natural Resources is authorized to issue a game breeder license to certain persons to engage in the business of raising protected game animals and game birds, including certain cervids. This bill would prohibit state agencies from killing, testing, and prohibiting the transfer of these deer due to disease except under certain circumstances. This bill would establish that deer possessed by a licensee are the personal property of that licensee. This bill would also make nonsubstantive, technical revisions to update the existing code language to current style.
