Wilderness Hunting Reciprocity. Good idea?

[LostWapiti]

Creating this poll to see peoples opinion on if legislation should be proposed to prevent residents of states that ban wilderness hunting(Wyoming) for NR from hunting wilderness in other states. This would be a way to give NR power to say that the WY rule is BS. Is this a slippery slope or a worthy issue to take up?

Instead of adding to the problem the same effort time and money should be spent creating legislation to repeal Wyomings law.

I am not a lawyer, I do not think non-residents would have standing in a lawsuit to overturn this.

I would like to hear from a lawyer on this.

We can only vote with our dollars in other states.

Wyoming could also do the 90/10 thing, and "screw" non-residents further.

yeah because wy cares how other states treat their NR

Naw it’s easier to make a poll crying like a little *****.

I've lived in WY my whole life and hunted wilderness for the first time this year.
This proposed ban might affect a couple dozen people, but nobody that I know.

If I ever leave WY to hunt, it will probably be to hunt pigs or whitetails, or to head to AK or Canada. Maybe someday... but a ban won't have much of an effect on that.

I appreciate your opinion and I agree that Wyoming has a bad policy, but I don't think that combating a BS rule by making another BS rule is the way to achieve your goal.

I’m not saying it should be done. I’m just curious what others think. I don’t really have an opinion yet. I just know that the idea of banning WY residents from other wilderness has been thrown around and am curious what people think of it. Sounds like it’s not popular.

It’s funny to me though when people say just lobby to get rid of their dumb law. Nobody who is in WY has any incentive to change the law. It’s great for them so I don’t see it changing.
