terminate bounty payments for nest predators, transfer moneys to the general fund, and declare an emergency.

This bill ends state-funded bounty payments for predators that damage bird nests and transfers the money to the general fund. It directly affects wildlife management programs and taxpayers who previously funded these payments. The legislation declares an emergency to allow the changes to take effect quickly. By eliminating the bounty system, the state shifts away from paying individuals to kill nest predators and instead reallocates those funds to general state purposes.
