Most fear is irrational but irrigational or not the habits of many =
people and the behavior of animals is greatly effected during hunting =
season. Many people fear bears in NS even more which is even more =
irrational and unlike shooting accidents (which actually do happen =
sometimes), bear attacks don=E2=80=99t.=20

Excluding duck hunters, I actually come across far more birdwatchers and =
hikers than hunters in the woods but I tend to do more coastal/nature =
reserve hiking on Sundays during hunting season and I know the hiking =
clubs do the same.=20

It=E2=80=99s a matter of perspective, I don=E2=80=99t think is absurd to =
fear getting shot in the woods during hunting season but I do think is =
absurd is to suggest that animals need to be culled by man. Nature can =
do its own culling.

I thought some hunters would also be against this.=20

I am a hunter but still against it, for the reason of giving the animals =
one day free from human pressure, not for non existing hikers in the =
country side.
For perspective, many hunters only get Saturday to hunt, to pay the =
money and only get 4 days in the woods is not worth it. Too many deer =
and the herd needs to be culled.
Another reason is the natives get to hunt 7 days a week/365 and it is =
not fair that they get free rein while others do not. This bias and =
discriminatory practice has to stop. All people should be treated =
equally and fairly as not to cause tensions. The government has to stop =
the free for all harvesting by natives. All animals have a harvest =
season and limits and all people should abide by them.=20
It would be nice to see some rational thinkers in the naturalist =
community, it would go a long way.
Simply look at the shooting accidents, they are near zero, to be afraid =
to go in the woods in hunting season is down right ridiculous.
