don't you just love regulations that took the imperial to metric conversion literally.

Yes, but it's only a quarter mile to three decimal places.

Very sloppy.

We don't have any decimal places in this town but there are some eating places which are less than a mile away.

To be pedantic: converting to the exact metric equivalents probably meant that they didn't have to rewrite the legislation - 'cos anything can happen during that process.

He ain't going to be doing much stalking in an orange jacket, not exactly good camo unless he was on a construction site!

He doesn't need to be camo'd from other hunters - just to the deer - who by the way apparently can't see the colour orange, that why its the safest way for them to be identifiable but still hidden!

Bears aren't colour blind though, so you don't have to wear orange if you are sitting up a tree waiting for the bear.

Apparently. Not that I have ever sat in a tree waiting for bear

I'd say just a decent pair of Nikes would be appropriate

Hi Nikki,
there is an interesting discussion in the following forum concerning the hunting signage in NS... and if in doubt, maybe ask those guys what they think.
In our area there are quite a few hunters and we know most of them , and the ones that are not directly known to us ask for permission to go hunting

We post several signs around our property (start of hunting season and remove end of season), this was after first year hunters crossed out land without asking and even if they asked we would have said no

You can even get orange coats for your dogs so the hunters can see them

Well - some dogs are hunting dogs!

E.g., your Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever.
