Senate Bill (SB796) will allow voters to vote for the use of hunting dogs to hunt or pursue cougars. Currently, it is against Oregon State Law to use hunting dogs to hunt black bears or cougars.

The Senate Bill (SB769) Summary reads: “Provides that a county is exempt from the applicability of a statute banning the use of dogs to hunt or pursue cougars if voters approve a county measure proposed by initiative petition or referred to the people by the governing body of the county.”

The bill is sponsored by State Senator Todd Nash (R), David Brock Smith (R), and Representative Bobby Levy (R),
