Amendments to the game farm and hunt preserve rules would modify the current regulations and provide clear requirements for fencing, caging and animal welfare. Consistency will be increased by defining terms and clearly identifying fencing requirements and application requirements. To ensure the well-being of captive wildlife kept on preserves, the mandatory area for the wooded and grassy areas has been increased proportionate to hunt preserve size. Draft rule language is focused on reducing the risk of escape, as well as specifying application and facility requirements. This will minimize the risk of the transfer of diseases such as Chronic Wasting Disease between facilities and wild populations. Clear language will improve consistency of enforcement statewide.
