Senate Bill No. 561 amends Section 4-121 of Title 29 of the Oklahoma Statutes, which pertains to noncommercial wildlife breeders' licenses. The bill updates the statutory language to clarify that individuals breeding or raising certain wildlife, specifically quail, for personal consumption or noncommercial purposes—including hobby, education, scientific purposes, or for release on private property—will no longer be required to obtain a license. Additionally, the bill specifies that licenses must be procured from the Director of the Department of Wildlife Conservation and that all licenses will expire on June 30 of each year.

The bill also removes references to the "State of Oklahoma" in favor of a more general term, "this state," thereby streamlining the language. The effective date for this legislation is set for November 1, 2025.
