[QUOTE="PrairieGhost, post: 336764, member: 704"] The general public unfortunately has some wild ideas about drones. In Montana to many ranchers are sure drones are spying on them. Some make up things. While camped at Sitting Bull U S Forrest Service campground in the Bighorn Mts I was visiting with a Ranger that stopped by. It was the last day the camp was open and the camp host next to us was packing up. To be polite I asked if it was OK to Photo our campsite with a drone. He said it was illegal to fly a drone anywhere in Wyoming if there was any hunting season open even if you were not a hunter yourself. I wasn't as polite the year before when I asked if he knew of any wolves in the Bighorns and if they were worried about their local moose population. He very snappily said there are no worries they only take the very old or sick. I told him I was a retired biologist and don't hand me your official line of bull shit. Give the maintenence guy a uniform and all of a sudden they are experts. Nothing at all against maintenance people we all have our expertise, but he was speaking way out of his. Im guessing he was not to blame and only passing the bs he was told to pass. The granola have invaded the gov science and pass along their own twisted thoughts not data driven reality conclusions. Ok off my soap box. [/QUOTE]
