SB3152 amends Illinois' Wildlife Code to update terminology and clarify trap specifications for trapping activities.
SB3152 amends the Illinois Wildlife Code by replacing references to "leghold" traps with "foothold" traps and specifies how trap diameters should be measured. It mandates that trap diameters are measured from the inside edges of the outermost portion of the jaws. The bill also includes various restrictions on trap types and placements, such as prohibiting certain traps during specific seasons or near animal habitats. The changes aim to ensure humane trapping practices and protect wildlife habitats.
