Require trappers to post notice signs near trails on public lands

This bill requires trappers using traps or snares on public lands in Montana to post visible notice signs near trailheads and trails. The signs must be placed within 1,000 feet of trailheads or 100 feet of any point along a public trail, and they must meet specific size and content requirements including the department's phone number and a warning about not disturbing traps. The Department of Fish, Wildlife, and Parks will provide downloadable or printed signs that trappers must maintain in good condition, replacing them within 24 hours if they become illegible or missing. The law also clarifies that trappers should remove their signs only after removing their traps and snares from the area.
