FISH AND GAME – Amends existing law to provide for a five-year moratorium on mule deer doe hunting in certain game management units.

This bill would temporarily ban hunting female mule deer in 22 specific Idaho hunting areas (units 19-57, including 52A and 53-57) for five years (2025-2030), due to declining deer populations. Exceptions allow hunting if chronic wasting disease is confirmed in a unit. The ban automatically ends on July 1, 2030, with no further action required.
