Mountain lion hunting season-changes.

Wyoming's HB 286 establishes a fixed annual mountain lion hunting season running from September 1 to August 31 each year. It removes all previous restrictions, including hunt areas, mortality limits (statewide or per area), bag limits, and time restrictions - allowing mountain lions to be taken 24/7 with a valid license. Hunters holding valid antelope, deer, or elk licenses can now take mountain lions without needing a separate mountain lion permit, and the bill repeals prior "mountain lion pursuit seasons." The law also requires the Game and Fish Commission to issue possession tags for mountain lions taken and permits trapping/snaring under new rules. This bill directly affects hunters and wildlife management practices by significantly expanding hunting flexibility while removing regulatory limits.
