Allow hunters over 75 years to use general elk license for cow elk
This bill allows Montana residents aged 75 and older to use general elk licenses to harvest antlerless elk on private land in specific hunting districts. The key provision expands eligibility for this type of harvest, which is currently restricted to youth under 15 years old, to include seniors in designated areas. The change applies only to privately owned land and does not affect public land hunting regulations or existing license pricing structures. This amendment modifies the Montana Code Annotated to clarify the conditions under which senior hunters may take antlerless elk using general licenses.
