Texas HB3831 amends identification requirements for breeder deer.

Texas HB3831 amends the Parks and Wildlife Code to revise identification requirements for breeder deer. Specifically, breeder deer born after the effective date of the Act must be identified by attaching an identification tag to the ear or applying an electronic identification device. The electronic device must be USDA-approved and have a 15-digit number starting with 840. The bill also mandates that breeders enter device numbers into a department database. Tattoos are an alternative identification method.
