The holder of a license, tag or stamp defined in section 11-0701 shall: (1) have such license, tag or stamp on the holder's person while exercising any privilege of that license stated in section 11-0701, or while assisting or accompanying a minor in hunting as provided in section 11-0929, and (2) if a stamp is required to be affixed to the license it shall be so affixed; and b. shall exhibit it on demand to any police officer, peace officer or owner, lessee or person in control of the lands or waters or the designees of the owner, lessee or person in control of the lands or waters on which the license holder is present; and c. if a button was issued with the license he shall wear such button in plain sight. 2. a. Holders of a license which authorizes the holder to hunt wildlife other than big game, while exercising the privileges of such license, shall have the back tag issued with their license attached to and displayed on the back of the outer garment between the shoulders in such manner that all figures are plainly visible at all times. b. Holders of a license which authorizes the holder to hunt big game, while hunting wild deer or bear, shall have the back tag issued with their license so attached and displayed. c. The license tag for the current year only shall be displayed. d. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs a, b and c of this subdivision, a license holder shall not be required to display such license tag in the Northern Zone or the Catskill Park. 3. Failure of a licensee to have the holder's license, tag or license with stamp affixed, on the holder's person while exercising any privilege of the license, tag or license and stamp, and to wear in plain sight any button issued with the license while so doing, is presumptive evidence that the holder is hunting, fishing or trapping, as the case may be, without holding the license, tag or license and stamp required by subdivision 6 of section 11-0703.
