[QUOTE="wjschmaltz, post: 358501, member: 6150"] No, believe it or not, wildlife still eats if there isn't a corn pile. Even if there is a corn pile at the end of the rainbow, I would and do hunt the trail and not the pile. Animal behavior is the single most important tool for a hunter and it's the last thing talked about. I don't hunt sheep or moose or anything where it eats, why would I show up late to the party when I know the road to the party? Again, I did help if you read what I typed. Hunters feeding them = the one thing that the fish and game can control and it's their obligation to control what they can. The Tragedy of Commons is the cornerstone of wildlife management and quite honestly all natural resource management as our world continues to expand. At its most simple form, that's what is on display in this baiting ban. Period. I couldn't have been more clear. I'm sorry, but I understand the fact they are filling their role in their mission statement. That's all I'm saying here. Even if I don't agree with it. Never did I say it was OK or not OK. This whole thread is a vacuum of thoughts, I'm just trying to provide a little perspective outside of that vacuum. Where did I say that? I don't know how I can be more clear in the fact I simply understand the rationale and don't necessarily agree or have a strong opinion. I was also clear in the fact that comments like this are why there will never be a legitimate conversation on the matter of baiting and why hunters always lose in the end. They can't get out of their own way to earn a reputable spot at the table. [/QUOTE]
