No person may kill or capture any game birds except during the season and in the manner provided by SDCL title 41, article 41:06, and this chapter. However, ducks, ring-necked pheasants, partridges, and quail which are obtained from the holder of a South Dakota captive game bird license, marked according to this chapter, and used for any event or activity related to sporting dog training or field trials may be pursued or taken on private lands at any time and on public areas with prior approval of the director of the division with management authority over the public area. A valid bill of sale that shows the licensee's name, address, and captive game bird license number; the number, species, and sex of the birds; the date of transaction; and the name and address of the possessor of the birds shall accompany the birds at all times until the birds reach the domicile of the possessor. Dog trainers may use throwing dummies, lures, or pigeons in the training of dogs at any time and in any place that such activity is not otherwise prohibited.

Sporting dog trials may be authorized and conducted on lands administered by the department. Application for a sporting dog trial must be made in writing on forms provided by the department.
