Should Ethics be taught in Hunter Ed.??
First, I believe it should, but here is the question.. This past weekend, I went to a hunters education course. I took mine back when I was 8 or 9 years old, so I thought I'd take it again, with my buddy who ask me to go with him. The class went well, and I thought the instructor did a great job, with the class of 13. I didn't take the test, but I was able to feed information back to the instructors in helping them
One area that could've raised some debate or discussion was the "Ethics" area. This seemed to interest me the most. Many of the questions were obvious that everyone could agree with; Like "Is it ethical to shoot 100 pheasants and leave them lay?".
But other questions; Like "Is it ethical to hunt a deer behind a 100 area fence?" And of course the instructor said No!. After knowing what I know on here, it's obvious that all of us have different ethics, and many here do not agree with that statement.
With that being know, should ethics be taught in Hunter Education??? Or should ethics teachings abide by only the law?
What is your 2 cents on the issue.
