This bill amends Wyoming Statute 23-1-302(h) to grant the game and fish commission the authority to limit the number of landowner hunting licenses issued in any limited quota hunt area. The new legal language specifies that the commission may impose such limitations while continuing to promote wildlife habitat maintenance and management objectives. Additionally, it maintains that the fees for these licenses will align with those prescribed under W.S. 23-2-101(j) for each species.

The bill is set to take effect on July 1, 2026, and aims to enhance wildlife management by allowing for more controlled issuance of hunting licenses to landowners, thereby potentially improving conservation efforts in designated areas.
