The bill amends existing laws regarding the hunting and treatment of wildlife in Wyoming, specifically focusing on predatory animals. It prohibits individuals from harassing, injuring, or killing predatory animals with vehicles on public lands. However, it allows for the harassment, pursuit, hunting, shooting, or killing of predatory animals using vehicles on private lands. The bill also introduces new definitions and clarifications regarding the use of aircraft and vehicles in relation to wildlife, including a specific definition of "aircraft" and provisions for exemptions for handicapped hunters.

Additionally, the bill mandates the Wyoming Game and Fish Commission to create necessary rules for the implementation of these changes. The effective date for the act is set for July 1, 2025, with certain sections taking effect immediately upon the completion of legislative processes. Overall, the bill aims to regulate the interaction between humans and predatory wildlife while providing specific allowances for private landowners.
