TAGGING ANY GAME BIRD OR MAMMAL RELEASED WITHIN THE
STATE OR HATCHED FROM EGGS AND RELEASED WITHIN THE
STATE FOR STOCKING PURPOSES OR TO THOSE SOLD TO THE
SECRETARY FOR PROPAGATING PURPOSES.

REVISOR'S NOTE: Subsections (a) and (b) presently
appear as Article 66C, section 181(a) of
the Code, and has been divided into
subsections for the purpose of clarity.
The word "metal" is proposed for deletion
and "tag" is substituted therefor because
of the practice of using cloth as well as
metal tags.

The last two sentences of Article 66C,
section 181(a) of the Code are proposed for
deletion because they appear as new
language in proposed section 10—905.

Subsection (c) is new language derived from
the last sentence of Article 66C, section
184 (d) of the Code.

The only other changes made are in style.
10-904. TAG FOR SHIPMENT AND SALE OF GAME.

FAIL TO RETURN TO THE SECRETARY ANY TAG WITH THE
REQUIRED INFORMATION OR KILL, SELL, GIVE AWAY, REMOVE,
