from what Ive seen of animal behaviour in block of public land I regularly hunt and have done for 25 years....the front country,the semi open stuff is carrying far less animals than 5 years ago....its like heavily spotlighted ground... well in effect it is the same
thermal image gear is closer to spotlight than dog/dogs way closer,it allows you to see what you normally wouldnt
and it makes the playing field uneven...where its illegal it shouldnt be used yet it is being done so.
