This bill amends Section 87-2-801 of the Montana Code Annotated to revise hunting licenses for residents aged 75 and older. Specifically, it allows these residents to use a general elk license to harvest an antlerless elk. The new provisions stipulate that this can occur during any season in hunting districts where youth under 15 years of age are permitted to harvest antlerless elk, and it is restricted to privately owned land.

Additionally, the bill maintains existing provisions for residents aged 62 and older, who can purchase various hunting licenses at half the cost. The changes aim to provide greater hunting opportunities for older residents, recognizing their contributions to wildlife management and the importance of recreational hunting in Montana.
