This video was shot by an offshoot of PETA called Air Angels. It was shot here in Massachusetts at Erwin Wilder WMA in Norton. I have a call into the Game Warden to let them know about it, it is clearly "Hunter Harassment" and we need to spread the word so everyone knows this is out there...

Here is a story on their news page:

It looks like Reedy's Archery at the end (weighing the deer)

It unfortunately gives quad flying a bad name, yet again.

oh cool!
something to shoot out of the sky

Yup that was Reedy's I let Chris know.

Of course they are....


I spoke with the game warden today and told him the story, he had heard something about it already. I gave him the web pages where he could see the video himself. He said they will try and build a hunter harassment case, but they need to catch them in the act.


On another note, all Wildlife Managements Areas are open to the public year round, for any non prohibited activities. This is something we need to get changed, after all it is our (Hunters) wildlands dollars that purchases these areas. We need these places closed to anyone but licensed hunters, their kids, or any youths that may go along hunting, from the beginning of Bird season to the end of Muzzleloader deer season.

Billy, I've been seeing some good size deer almost every day near my house. You know the area well. I had a very large doe behind my shed on Monday morning when I was leaving for work. Probably no more than 30' from where I was standing.

Nice rack on that doe.

We figured they were up behind the houses. 4 sits and so far, Saturday am is the only day I saw anything. 3 does came down around 830, bird hunters must have moved them down. I am not 100% sure where exactly you are. How close are you to the house with the BArn next to the WMA? About what time i the Am are you seeing them?

:smash:

It's how they operate, distract you ..... :grins:

Maybe that is what those skinny dippers on Cutty were trying to do to us guys!

Just wait until they buzz a group and someone accidentally gets shot.

I'm just 4 houses over the town line across from the GC. I'm seeing them between 8:30 and 9 when I leave for work and also on the way home between 4:30 and 5:30. One night coming home from fishing back in early September, I saw 6 from the main rd to my house. It was about 1am. If you want to use my yard for access, let me know. There's a trail that runs out from my back yard into the woods that they use.
