I’m not trying to troll, I’m genuinely curious. Thinking about deer specifically, it doesn’t seem like visual camouflage would really help much when hunting them. Deer sense predators by sensitive hearing (big ears) and smell (long snout). Their eyes are on the sides of their head, so they detect motion rather than high-resolution.
So trying to blend in with the surroundings doesn’t seem to be an advantage in this case. Assuming all this, what’s the point of clothing with camo print on it?
Blaze Orange is legally required in some jurisdictions. The idea is that it signals to other hunters that you are a human, don’t shoot. But people are stupid and I would rather they didn’t see me at all.
it’s a legal requirement for anyone in an hunting area, even if you aren’t hunting. i am a hiker/bike rider and we are required to wear blaze or orange in in any state park during the fall because of hunting season. also your dog is supposed to be wearing it
it’s common for people/dogs to get shot during hunting season.
It’s not a legal requirement in my province.
