Amend the bill by striking out the title and substituting the following:

‘An Act To Amend the Laws Governing Tagging of Harvested Animals ’

Amend the bill in section 2 by striking out all of paragraph D (page 1, lines 12 to 16 in L.D.) and inserting the following:

D A person may keep an unregistered animal harvested by that person if that person notifies a game warden within 18 hours as to the location of that animal and the circumstances preventing the person from registering the animal in accordance with subsection 1.

SUMMARY

This amendment allows a person to keep an unregistered animal harvested by that person for longer than otherwise allowed if the person notifies a game warden within 18 hours as to the location of that animal and the circumstances preventing the person from registering the animal. The bill allows a similar exception but only in circumstances when a registration station within a reasonable distance of the person is not open due to a holiday or other legitimate reason.
