The law expressly excludes “baiting to take game” from its definition of wildlife feeding. Two gallons placed near a home to watch deer is now lawful, while food placed to help a hunter harvest a deer remains illegal. The new law attempts to address those concerns by requiring state feeding orders to comply with federal disease-control standards and agreements. Residents should not face criminal penalties merely because deer visit a bird feeder or consume a small amount of food placed near a home. Michigan lawmakers should now apply the same principles of property rights, personal responsibility, and equal treatment to hunters.
