YES!!! Way to go Representative Bieda! Those who shoot in "canned hunts" are an embarrassment to real hunters. So are those who bate animals for kill. Exotic kills should be made in that animals real and natural environment. No animal should be raised to be hunted or be shipped to be hunted in an enclosed area. That's just unsportsmanlike, cowardly, and shows lack of skill.

stay out of other people busness. I have never been on an enclosed hunt but i have places to hunt wild deer. this is just another attempt to devide and defete the hunting community.

Kudos to those in favor of HB 4848. I'm a long time hunter -- a real hunter not one of those pansy-ass fairy wanna-bees who shoot at captive animals and pass themselves off as sportsman.

Enclosure hunting can be as challenging as any hunt in the wild. Unless you've tried it, dot knock it. I've taken Bison, boar and red stag at game ranches and each hunt was more than a"walk through" type of hunt. I had to stack the game to get close enough for a killing shot. I recommend you go to a game ranch and just walk through to see how it would be to hunt.

Why don't you go back to school and learn how to spell.

Are we all so damned perfect that we must constantly meddle in the affairs orf others?Don't like "canned Hunts" don't go on one.Leave those who do alone .You ain't walkin' in their shoes are ya?If all you can do is be a grammar critic on line GET A LIFE!!!!!!

Doesn't our overpaid and underworked legislature have better things to do.I bet I can come up with at least a hundred or so things far more pressing than this issue.

wild chipmunks and ferocious whitetail deer? boy, what an outstanding arguement for a PART TIME legislature.

that importing 'exotic' species into michigan could raise. it's a NEW BUSINESS. and the legislature is AGAINST IT. were they THIS BAD when henry ford wanted a permit to build them new-fangled horseless carriages??? i'll bet they would be today.
