new text begin
Notwithstanding section 97B.425, a private landowner or person authorized by the
private landowner may use a drum to bait bear on the person's private land. The drum
must be securely chained or cabled to a tree so that it cannot be moved from the site by a
bear and the drum may not include a mechanical device for dispensing feed. The drum
must be marked with the name and address of the person who registered the bait site. For
purposes of this section, "drum" means a 30 gallon or larger drum.
