Is that really the rationale? I would think risk of accidentally harming humans or property would significantly increase at night.
- protomyth 6y agoIts a combination, that's one of the big rationals I've always heard. Also, enforcement of rules would be really painful at night. It probably would be very dangerous to be out there with some of the idiots who think they are hunters.

- kortilla 6y agoThat and the fact that it would be easier to get away without hunting without a tag since the state game department doesn’t have night patrols.
