爱达荷州渔猎局两项狩猎新规征求意见10月28日截止:野禽电子标签与慢性消耗病分区管控成焦点

爱达荷州渔猎局正在征求公众对两项狩猎管理新规的意见,征求意见期将于10月28日截止,渔猎委员会定于11月17日至18日的会议上对这两项提案进行表决。第一项提案拟把电子标签的适用范围扩大到部分野禽,让猎人可以不再携带容易受潮、褪色或遗失的纸质标签,改为以电子方式验证标签。第二项提案针对慢性消耗病,这种致命神经系统疾病会影响鹿、麋鹿、驼鹿等鹿科动物。
提案拟把慢性消耗病管理区的管控细化到单个狩猎管理单元,禁止在同一管理区内的不同单元之间转移整具动物尸体,无论是狩猎所得还是捡拾所得,因为现行规定允许转移可能含有脑部或脊髓组织的整具尸体。
渔猎局表示,电子标签完全自愿,习惯纸质标签的猎人可以继续使用纸质标签。工作人员将在汇总全部公众意见后向委员会提出建议,若提案获批将进入待定规则程序。

Idaho Fish and Game Seeks Comment Through October 28 on E-Tagging and Chronic Wasting Disease Rules
Idaho Fish and Game is seeking public comment on two proposed hunting-management rules, with the comment period running through October 28. The Fish and Game Commission is scheduled to vote on both proposals at its November 17-18 meeting. The first proposal would expand electronic tagging to certain game birds, letting hunters validate tags electronically instead of carrying paper tags that can fade, wash out, or be lost. The second targets chronic wasting disease, the fatal neurological disease affecting deer, elk, and moose.
The second proposal would let the department manage chronic wasting disease zones by individual game management unit, making it illegal to move a whole carcass between units within the same management zone — whether hunted or salvaged — because current rules allow moving whole carcasses that may contain brain or spinal tissue.
The department stresses that e-tagging is entirely voluntary and hunters who prefer paper tags may keep using them. Staff will review all comments and make recommendations to the commission; if approved, the rules will advance to pending status.
