Deer Hunting Within City Limits?

[i_am_the_koi]

Sooooooo,

Random thought that I'm seriously trying to figure out the answer to.

There are a couple of spots around my area within city limits that have resident deer living in them. 2 little community parks and 2 open land spots with no housing or development on them.

What is the law regarding hunting within city limits?

Obviously, no gun or bow hunting. What about spear hunting? Knife? Hand to deer combat? Snare? A fricken lasso?

Do I need a "hunting license" to hunt a deer with my bare hands?

What if I chase the deer into the street and they get hit by a car, can I then harvest the meat from the roadkill?

Are there other animals I can hunt if not deer?

Raccoon season? Bunny season? Pigeons? Spandex Deer?

Your post made me think of this. Good luck with your hunt.

Not sure if serious.

Yes, you need a license and a tag for the zone in which your property lies. No, a spear, snare, VEHICLE, nor ninja moves are not a legal method of take. Most cities have ordinances against discharging a firearm or bow within city limits with few exceptions (like at a designated range).

Small game and furbearing mammals are legal to hunt but also require a license.

Take the hunter safety course and lots of these questions will be answered.

Hunting is not allowed within city limits, its something that has to be approved by the city, and given that this is California you don't need me to tell you that ain't gonna happen. Also discharging of weapons even a bow is often illegal within a cities limits.

Guns and bows are the only legal method of take for big and small game in CA, there are some exceptions for trapping but you need a trappers license. Side note, in a lot of states if you accidentally hit a deer with your car and report it, you can legally take the meat for your own consumption. In CA if you hit one with your car and take it home you will be charged with unlawful take due to method.

A hunting license is require to take a game animal.

Other animals...see my first response.

What if the animal attacked me first? Am I allowed to defend myself?

My uncles hunt deer with shotguns in/near townships/cities in Mich. I don't know what the rules are here.

Wisconsin, Michigan and a lot of states with insane white-tailed deer populations have hunts within city limits. Most often they are archery only, the hunters have to pass special courses, and gain permission from the residents. Designated hunts within city limits are highly regulated.

Townships likely have less strict rules and I would bet your uncles are hunting on larger plots of land than those often occurring within a city.

Could be. I know they still hunt within the city limits of Grand Rapids. It's relatively far out on the outskirts of the city in townships like Kentwood and Byron Center. There are still lots of big open plots out there. One of them does both bow and shotgun hunts. In fact he hunts as much as he can. Will even bag deer for others on their tags on the under.

P.S. Just looked. You're right. Kentwood and Byron Center are townships outside of Grand Rapids.

CA hunting regulations:
Must have expressed permission of landowner to hunt on private property. Must be greater than 150 yards from any thing resembling a building. Even if all conditions are met, local law enforcement may become interested by gunfire or by man with gun skulking in woods.

 

[Eldritch]

Sooooooo,

Random thought that I'm seriously trying to figure out the answer to.

There are a couple of spots around my area within city limits that have resident deer living in them. 2 little community parks and 2 open land spots with no housing or development on them.

What is the law regarding hunting within city limits?

Obviously, no gun or bow hunting. What about spear hunting? Knife? Hand to deer combat? Snare? A fricken lasso?

Do I need a "hunting license" to hunt a deer with my bare hands?

What if I chase the deer into the street and they get hit by a car, can I then harvest the meat from the roadkill?

Are there other animals I can hunt if not deer?

Raccoon season? Bunny season? Pigeons? Spandex Deer?

Check your local laws. Pretty much any discharge of a firearm within City Limits is illegal in the Yay Area. You might be able to bow hunt them without being arrested, but probably have violated game laws. If you are going to try and hunt deer with your bare hands, please, please, film it for BARF.

I just seriously had a flashback-PTSD from when I took my hunter's safety course years ago.

Those people asked the stupidest questions. I just remember looking around the room and being incredulous that these fucking people have guns. Really made me question the whole 2nd Amendment thing.

Blast it with a potato gun. :toothless

Have you ever taken a CCW course? It's even worse.

Three to date.

Our Utah instructor decided to sweep the whole class with his (loaded) 5.7. I pretty much zoned out on anything he had to say after that.

Then I was in Vegas for a week a couple of years ago and decided to take the free CCW course at The Gun Store. Staff and instructors were excellent, but the attendees.... not so much. One of the participants brought in this 30-year old Saturday night special, I forget from which company, but it was literally still in the original cardboard box. Never fired it before, he couldn't even figure out how to load it. Had no idea if he actually passed the course because I picked the lane furthest away from him. :laughing

My last renewal had a guy who had to be at least 94 years old, in a pressed uniform consisting of hunter green polyester slacks and a shirt embroidered with NEIGHBORHOOD WATCH. He had a scandium snubby through which he was firing full house .357 Golden Saber rounds. He couldn't operate the pistol very well, and at ten yards he could hardly hit the target. He passed.

Another guy raised his hand to ask a question then went on for 5 minutes about a dream he had where he fought off a gang of home invaders in a protracted gun fight.

Then there was the mall ninja in cargo shorts and security guard shoes walking the line comparing everyone's target to his after each round of firing.

I'm a staunch 2A supporter, but we desperately need better representation in the general public. These wackos are going to cost us our rights just as bad as the school shooters.

 

[i_am_the_koi]

Not sure if serious.

Totally serious.

Seriously tempted to at least try and catch a deer with bare hands.

I was also thinking a gladiator style net and trident method of hunting.


What about a dry ice bomb?

Drone method of snaring?

Seriously, there's got to be a way to legally hunt deer in city limits!
