Harvest reporting program; establish for white-tailed deer.
HB 1567 requires Mississippi deer hunters to report their harvests through an electronic system (like a mobile app or website) developed by the Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries and Parks. The program aims to collect accurate data for managing white-tailed deer populations, with hunters facing fines of $100-$1,000 for failing to report. The department must also submit annual reports to the legislature on the program's implementation. This bill directly affects all deer hunters in Mississippi who participate in the sport.
