Game breeder license; possessory interest in deer established; killing, testing, prohibition of transfer of deer by state agencies for disease prohibited, subject to exceptions

SB 323 clarifies that deer (cervids) owned by licensed game breeders are the personal property of those breeders, not state property. It prohibits state agencies from requiring the killing, testing, or restricting transfers of these deer due to disease - except when disease is detected in the specific deer or the deer was transferred from a diseased source. The bill directly affects licensed game breeders who raise deer for commercial purposes. It updates existing law to ensure breeders retain ownership rights while allowing limited state intervention for disease control under specific conditions.
