1sagittarius: I work with Conservation officers very regularly. This question seems to come up alot in the Q&A part of our hunter safety education classes - and most say they can & will enforce ANY baiting. Remember it's considered baited even 10n days after the bait is removed or consumed. Also there was emergency legislation enactd to help control CWD which states ANY feeding of wildlife that results in food not being consumed entirely at the time of feeding is illegal. (No piles of food). Designed to allow people to throw food to birds, squirrels and such. But they don't want piles where deer could possibly transfer fluids my mouth/nose.
