(a)Livestock. It is unlawful for any person to willfully or neglectfully allow unauthorized livestock to encroach upon any lands owned or managed by the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation.
(b)Horses. No person shall ride, drive, lead or keep a horse or other livestock on lands owned or managed by the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation, except Honobia Creek WMA and Three Rivers WMA, during the period of October 1 through January 1 and spring turkey season, annually without prior written approval from the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation. Individuals or parties of less than 25 may ride on areas with prior written approval of the local biologist during the closed period if no hunting conflict is determined by the biologist. U.S. Forest Service regulations shall apply to those lands owned by the Forest Service. See 800:25-7-71 [REVOKED] (renumbered to 800:30-1-20) also.

Persons holding nonambulatory permits or motor vehicle permits are exempt.
