Mississippi WFP Commission Adopts Change To Supplemental Feeding Rule
JACKSON – A change to the wildlife supplemental feeding rule was adopted by Mississippi’s Commission on Wildlife, Fisheries, and Parks at its recent meeting on September 16. The adopted change removes the “line of sight” prohibition from the rule, allowing hunters to place approved feeders in locations where they can be seen by the hunters.
Unchanged in the rule is the requirement that hunters must be at least 100 yards from the feeder. The adopted rule has been filed with the Secretary of State’s Office and will become effective November 1, 2015.
Above ground covered feeders or stationary spin cast feeders must be used to feed wildlife. For more information visit www.mdwfp.com.
