You're right. I didn't see the opposable thumbs. Please accept my apologies.

from a critter standpoint, I think yes it should pass. part of it is important for areas where a person hunting might pass through a state park from one NFS property to another. there are places where this happens. what does a hunter do? there are other things besides bears to be aware of too. when I'm in the mountains I usually carry a 45lc, first round is snake shot, remainder are "flying ashtrays".

the other side is the human danger. I think it is the same everywhere, and nowhere are predators happier than places where they know the honest cannot properly defend themselves. when I go hunting I worry sometimes about the other humans up there, never about the animals. (without fail, if I have a tag and a gun a bear will never come into camp, no matter where I store the food, what I cook etc.).
