Department:

FISH AND WILDLIFE CONSERVATION COMMISSION

Division:

Freshwater Fish and Wildlife

Chapter:

WILD HOG AREAS

Overview

RULE:

68A-21.002	Establishment (Repealed)
68A-21.004	General Regulations Relating to Wild Hog Areas (Repealed)

PURPOSE:

The purpose of the proposed rule repeal is to delete Wild Hog Area general regulation rules as part of a suite of rule change proposals to change the way wild hogs are managed. The effect would be a simplified set of regulations which treat wild hogs as wildlife. This suite of proposed rules would allow wild hogs to be taken on private land with no size and no bag limits throughout the year. In addition, it would remove the game status of wild hogs statewide and allow wild hogs to be managed by area-specific rules on public hunting lands.

SUMMARY:

Rule 68A-21.002, F.A.C., which provides for the establishment of wild hog areas, is proposed to be repealed. Rule 68A-21.004, F.A.C., which provides general regulations for wild hogs, is proposed to be repealed.
