Default Using drones for hunting

Hate to ride this horse again but what the heck. How can these governments be so one-sided I don't get it

It is all about traditional hunting, don't you know.

could be for the fact that many villages are really quite remote, and it's often that Inuit hunters like any hunter end up stranded or in need of outside assistance which can run quite high in cost.

Whereas us Joe White hunters tend to live in larger centers and/or are guided and hunt primarily after driving to a parking spot before unloading our quads and so forth.

We could always petition for drone hunting for everyone.

Then we can start a thread on the stupidity of hunting with drones

If you see one flying overhead during hunting season, would make for some fun target practice!

They certainly resemble crows or magpies -- both of which are open all the time.

On a separate note I wonder how long before Fish and Wildlife start to use these for assisting in enforcement?

I think it may be happening, a drone sat very high above me the other day while I fished but for the life of me I could not spot anyone about compared to other times when seeing people buzzing them around.

The frustration is imminently understandable, though this one has two wheels in the ditch.
