New Mexico is in line to become the next state to take aim at the use of drones for hunting big game animals
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — New Mexico is in line to become the next state to take aim at the use of drones for hunting big game animals.
Alaska, Colorado and Montana already have outlawed the use of drones in hunting, but some sportsmen groups and animal advocates are pushing to see that regulations are passed in every state to protect the concept of fair chase.
They argue the art of hunting should be based on skills and traditions that have been honed and passed down over generations, not technological advancements such as drones.
"Hunting an animal with your physical senses, with your eyes and your ears and even to a lesser extent your sense of smell, that puts you on fairly even ground with these animals that can see far better, hear far better and smell far better than we can," said Joel Gay, a spokesman for the New Mexico Wildlife Federation.
Drones would simply take the challenge out of hunting and could lead to the sport becoming more exclusive, Gay and others said.
