Unrelated to your point, I have a friend who was a wildlife biologist / game warden for a US state. At one point, at least one insurance company was trying to pressure the department of game and fish to issue many more deer hunting licenses, to reduce the number of deer-vehicle collisions.
- hellbannedguy 5y agoI don't think getting a license is hard, but the fees keep going up. Hell even a fishing license is $56.00, and that has many restrictions. I'm one of those liberal guys who has never hunted, and only use barbless hooks when I did fish. (I stopped fishing after I caught a Batray in the bay. It cried like a baby on the pier. I really played with my head. I put him back of course.) My point is I don't like high fees--for anything. I knew a jail guard years ago, and he said there are people in jail over not buying a license. (Starts with license, and no show, blah, blah, blah, prison. This was in Mississouri.) My point is I don't like these high fees we are being charged.
- bitxbitxbitcoin 5y agoI heard about this via a podcast before! Just a clarification, the thing that the insurance company wanted the department in charge to do was issue (make available) more deer tags, not licenses. Hard to say more without knowing which state.
- mcguire 5y agoYou are correct. The idea was to reduce the deer population. (AL)
