South Dakota SB148 prohibits bounty payments for controlling nest predation by certain animals.
South Dakota SB148 amends existing law to prohibit the expenditure of funds as a bounty for the taking of animals such as badgers, opossums, raccoons, striped skunks, red foxes, and others if the purpose is to control nest predation. This change applies to funds in the Game, Fish and Parks Fund or the State Animal Damage Control Fund. The bill also modifies the Department of Game, Fish and Parks' authority to control certain wild animals, specifying that expenses for such control must be paid from the Department of Game, Fish and Parks fund.
