The purpose and effect of this rule development is to address the possession, housing, shipment and sale of captive wildlife. The proposed rule changes will define “hobbyist” and exempt hobbyists from meeting sustained and consistent commercial activity; clarify requirements for meeting local building and zoning codes for applicants requesting authorization to possess Class I or Class II wildlife; specify labeling requirements for the shipment of live wildlife animal life, freshwater aquatic life or marine life; and clarify submission requirements for the Critical Incident/Disaster Plan.
