Charlie.....ever see how your steak gets to your plate?

You trying to tell me the guy paying someone to shoot their breeder buck that's past his prime is doing it for the meat? Seriously your not right?

If its interpreted to mean confined within pen, caged, or staked so that it cannot escape I am for that. A few years ago Indiana got rid of the same. I am not for banning high fenced hunting as long as the animal can escape as in many many acres.

Doesn't matter much to me, Colorado is one of the best managed states when it comes to game animals. The Colorado DOW pretty well knows they are doing.

I'M ALL FOR BANNING HIGH FENCED HUNTING. I READ AN ARTICLE ON DEER RANCHES, IT LOOKED AT DISEASE RATES AMONG DEER IN CAPTIVITY. IT WAS ALARMING HOW HIGH THE RATE OF CWD WAS. THAT MAY NOT SOUND TOO BAD, BUT JUST LOOK AT THE NUMBERS REPORTED ON DEER GETTING OUT INTO THE WILD. IT HAPPENS EVERY DAY. WV IS TRYING TO MAKE FENCES HIGHER TO KEEP THIS FROM HAPPENNING. BUT JUST THINK, ONE STORM AND A TREE HERE AND THERE FALLING AND GUESS WHAT...CWD IN YOUR LOCAL DEER HERDS. CWD CAN GO ON FOR YEARS IN YOUR LOCAL WOODS BEFORE ANYONE NOTICES IT. THE ONLY WAY I WOULD ALLOW HIGH FFENCED HUNTING IS TO SEE: 1. NO LEGAL SELLS OF LIVE ANIMALS ACROSS STATED LINES,2. TESTING OF EVERY SINGLE DEER FOR DISEASE, IF FOUND THE RANCHER SHOULD BE CLOSED. WHY CLOSED YOU MIGHT ASK... SOME STUDIES ON CWD HAVE SHOWED IT IS MORE DANGEROUS ONCE IT IS IN CLAY. MAKING IT EASIER TO CATCH.
WV ....do you have proof of this? I'm not arguing, but I am curious as to your source .....

Who's the offended party?

After rereading it carefully, it really doesn't matter to me. Partially because it involves Colorado and I doubt there are many if any high fenced operations in Colorado. Personally I'd like to see it stay that way.. .....no high fence.

Same here, we're trying to stamp out that cancer in our state right now. It isn't about antis, although they support it too, it's about common decency and ethically taking game. If the animal has a fair chance that's hunting, tying one to a fence and blasting it from a few yards as happened in the infamous Bellar case here is definitely not. I cannot and never will support that kind of "sport", it's repulsive , reprehensible, and reflects badly on the rest of us.

Yeah, I would say; this is where it all starts…

But it started a long time ago, and this is just the next progressive step… I wonder what the next one will be?

There's an Army base near me called Fort AP Hill. It has around 87,000 acres and has a hunting program. But since it is fenced...

I think there are a couple of reasons why this is a bad law.

1) It said no hunting in ANY fenced enclosure....for those of you who hunt on cattle farms, are you willing to give up hunting in those areas because those are definitely fenced.

2) Who is the authority that decides that an area is considered "fenced"?

Those two reasons above are very important.

Hard to have a discussion.....when everything you say is taken out of context.

Peace.;)
