I dont actually think that the wording "positively identify your target" actually gets the intended message across, which is surely "don't shoot a human", so perhaps it should just say that. The current wording actually detracts from the true message in my opinion. I can't help but think think that instead of mentally questioning "is that a human?" when looking at a target, some people are questioning "is that really a deer?" and deciding that it is. The human bit never entered their head... I think that the true intent of that particular rule is critically missing or not stated and therefore not instilled in some peoples psyche.
