Can someone way smarter then me tell me the MCL covering carrying with CPL while hunting?

This one prevents the DNR from enacting rules against CPL holders on DNR property:

MCL 324.504 (6) - "The department shall not promulgate or enforce a rule that prohibits an individual who is licensed or
exempt from licensure under 1927 PA 372, MCL 28.421 to 28.435, from carrying a pistol in compliance with
that act, whether concealed or otherwise, on property under the control of the department."

But this is the one regarding hunting:

MCL 324.43510 " Carrying or transporting firearm, slingshot, bow and arrow, crossbow or trap;
license required; exception; applicability to taking of wild animal.
Sec. 43510. (1) Subject to subsection (2) and except as provided in section 43513, a person shall not carry
or transport a firearm, slingshot, bow and arrow, crossbow, or a trap while in any area frequented by wild
animals unless that person has in his or her possession a license as required under this part.
(2) This act or a rule promulgated or order issued by the department or the commission under this act shall
not be construed to prohibit a person from transporting a pistol or carrying a loaded pistol, whether concealed
or not, if either of the following applies:

(a) The person has in his or her possession a license to carry a concealed pistol under 1927 PA 372, MCL
28.421 to 28.435.
