The management plan must provide for specific management practices to be applied to the deer population on the acreage, which may include, in addition to other practices:
(1) the temporary detention within an enclosure on the acreage covered by the permit of wild white-tailed deer for the purpose of propagation with other wild deer, and the release of those deer on that acreage;
(2) the killing of wild deer in open seasons established by the commission in a number set in the management plan; or
(3) the killing of wild deer during a special season having a special bag limit established by the commission for this permit.
(b) A management plan approved by the department must be consistent with the regulatory responsibilities of the commission under Chapter 61.
