Summary
The California Constitution authorizes the Legislature to delegate to the Fish and Game Commission powers relating to the protection and propagation of fish and game. Existing statutory law delegates to the commission the power to regulate the taking or possession of birds, mammals, fish, amphibia, and reptiles in accordance with prescribed laws. Under existing law, the Department of Fish and Game exercises various functions with regard to the taking of fish and game. This measure would establish the right to hunt and fish wildlife, as defined, subject only to statutes enacted by the Legislature and regulations adopted by the Fish and Game Commission to promote wildlife conservation and management. It would provide that public hunting and fishing, including the use of traditional methods, as defined, would be a preferred means of managing and controlling wildlife.
