Oklahoma Wildlife Conservation; modifying certain season dates. Emergency.
SB 2152 modifies Oklahoma's wildlife hunting and fishing season dates and permits. It requires deer hunting seasons to begin after specific dates, creates two annual senior citizen hunting days for Oklahoma residents 64+ years old, and sets precise bowfishing dates on the Upper Illinois River (June 1-March 31 upstream from Horseshoe Bend, December 1-March 31 further upstream). The bill also establishes permit fees ($20 for residents, $75 for non-residents) with $5 per fee funding Oklahoma's Acres for Wildlife Program. These changes apply directly to hunters and anglers participating in regulated seasons across Oklahoma.
