    - Stop carrying a rifle on half cock. Empty chamber only, then load when identified the target. Makes you think about it rather than a snap shot of a movement.
    - I would all for a season, and licence type (free one from DOC) that was specific to species hunted. That way you don't shoot anything that moves. In most overseas countries the licence is very specific about size, species, points and sex of animal hunted. The penalties are huge so hunters take their time to positively identify their target.
