Section 14-2 - Aerial Hunting Prohibition and Exceptions

(i) The Airborne Hunting Act allows aerial hunting by persons who are acting within the scope of their official duties as an employee or authorized agent of a state or the United States to administer or protect or aid in the administration or protection of land, water, wildlife, livestock, domesticated animals, human life, or crops. The Department recognizes this exception and does not require those persons to obtain a permit from the Department.

(ii) The Airborne Hunting Act and related federal regulations also provide that a state may issue permits to persons to engage in aerial hunting or harassing of wildlife for purposes of administering or protecting land, water, wildlife, livestock, domesticated animals, human life, or crops, but not for the purpose of sport hunting. Except for the persons described in Section 2(b)(i), any person who seeks to engage in aerial hunting or harassing of rodents and predators must first obtain a permit from the Department.
