Washington Revised Code Title 77. Fish and Wildlife § 77.15.720. Discharge of firearm, bow, or crossbow while hunting--In a manner that injures a person or that kills or causes substantial bodily harm to livestock--Suspension of hunting privileges--Appeal

(1)(a) If a person discharges a firearm, bow, or crossbow while hunting and in a manner that injures, or that a reasonable person would believe is likely to injure, another person, the director shall revoke all of the shooter's hunting licenses and suspend all hunting privileges for three years. If the shooting kills or results in the death of another person, then the director shall revoke all of the shooter's hunting licenses and suspend all of the person's hunting privileges for ten years.

(b) If a person, with malice, discharges a firearm, bow, or crossbow while hunting and in a manner that kills or causes substantial bodily harm to livestock belonging to another person, the director shall revoke all of the shooter's hunting licenses and suspend all hunting privileges for three years. For the purposes of this subsection (1)(b), “malice” has the same meaning as provided in RCW 9A.04.110 but applies to acts against livestock.
