This bill amends Section 7-602 of Title 29 of the Oklahoma Statutes, which governs the transportation of wildlife. It introduces several exceptions to the existing prohibitions on shipping or transporting wildlife, including provisions for dead fish or wildlife taken by licensed hunters or fishermen, processed rough fish products, and rough fish taken by licensed commercial fishermen with a special permit from the Director of Wildlife Conservation. Additionally, the bill allows for the transportation of lawfully bred or propagated fish and wildlife, as well as wildlife for which the Director has granted specific written authority. Notably, it adds new provisions for the transportation of deceased, intact cervidae to taxidermists in good standing and allows owners of commercially licensed hunting facilities to transport cervidae between in-state facilities without a permit.

The bill also updates statutory language and modifies penalties for violations. The previous fine structure is adjusted, removing the specific wording "of" before the fine amount, while maintaining the range of fines and potential imprisonment terms. The effective date for this legislation is set for November 1, 2025.
