The bill specifies that purple marks must be vertical lines at least eight inches long and one inch wide, placed three to five feet from the ground, and spaced no more than 100 feet apart on forest land or 1,000 feet apart on other land. The bill also allows hunters to retrieve wounded animals on posted or marked land without penalty.
