Mississippi prohibits supplemental feeding of white-tailed deer and wild hogs statewide under MDWFP regulations. Hinds County enforces state law; feeding attracting nuisance wildlife also triggers county nuisance abatement.
Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries, and Parks (MDWFP) prohibits supplemental feeding of white-tailed deer and wild hogs statewide under CWD response regulations codified at 40-2 Miss. Admin. Code. Feeding wild hogs is banned under MS Code §49-7-95. In Hinds County (containing Jackson, the state capital), coyote and raccoon populations are dense along the Pearl River corridor; intentional feeding that attracts vermin violates the county nuisance ordinance. Black bears are state-protected; intentional feeding is a misdemeanor under MS Code §49-5-13. Feral cat colonies are not specifically regulated but may trigger nuisance complaints. Unsecured garbage attracting wildlife violates property maintenance codes.
MDWFP deer/hog feeding violations: $100 to $500 fine plus hunting license suspension. Bear feeding: misdemeanor up to $1,000. County nuisance complaints: warning then $50 to $500.
