Changes minimum age for issuance of trapping license from 12 years to 18 years of age.
This bill raises New Jersey's minimum age for obtaining a trapping license from 12 to 18 years old, amending R.S.23:3-1(c) and R.S.23:3-4(a) of state law. It directly affects young people aged 12-17 who previously could legally obtain trapping licenses but will now be ineligible. The legislation maintains other requirements for trapping licenses, such as completing a trapping methods course, but increases the age threshold for eligibility. This change aligns trapping license requirements with New Jersey's general age restrictions for similar activities.
