3    BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY OF NORTH DAKOTA:
4        SECTION 1. AMENDMENT. Subsection 1 of section 20.1-03-11 of the North Dakota
5    Century Code is amended and reenacted as follows:
6        1.   An individual may not hunt, kill, take, or attempt to take any big game without having
7             the appropriate big game hunting license and a locking seal bearing a number
8             corresponding to the number of the big game hunting license or stamp. The locking
9             seal must be issued as an integral part of the big game hunting license. Except as
10            otherwise provided in this subsection, an individual may not apply for or be issued a
11            big game hunting license unless that individual's fourteenth or subsequent birthday
12            occurs in the same year as the respective big game hunting season. This age
13            limitation does not apply to applicants for big game licenses for hunting by bow and
14            arrow. Each violation of this section is a distinct and separate offense. The following
15            provisions govern youth deer and antelope hunting:
16            a.     An individual whose eleventh, twelfth, or thirteenth birthday occurs in the same
17                   year as a youth deer hunting season is entitled to receive a statewide white-tailed
18                   antlerless deer permit but may hunt only in that youth deer hunting season.
19            b.     An individual whose twelfth or thirteenth birthday occurs in the same year as an
20                   antelope hunting season is entitled to apply for an antelope permit for that
21                   season.
22            c.     An individual hunting under subdivision a or b must be accompanied by the
23                   individual's parent, guardian, or other individual authorized by the individual's
24                   parent or guardian. As used in this section, "accompanied" means to stay within a
