Updates cross-references in Michigan's large carnivore act to reflect changes in related laws.

This bill amends the Michigan large carnivore act to update cross-references to the 1969 PA 287, ensuring consistency with the current legislative framework. It specifically revises definitions and references within the act to align with other relevant statutes, such as the dog law of 1919 and the animal industry act of 1988. The changes aim to clarify and streamline the legal definitions and authorities related to large carnivores, animal control officers, and related permits and licenses.
