>Hunting near roads is tightly controlled normally. Shooters are normally required to ensure there is a landscape feature, such as a small hill, that will stop any stray bullets. Shooting near gravel roads is normally prohibited for risk of ricochets. One solution for harvest hunting is to construct a hunting tower in a car trailer that is towed along as the field is harvested, but this too is controversial as it potentially violates laws on shooting from a vehicle.
An unfortunate accident that could have been avoided by knowing what lies beyond your target and knowing what you're shooting into.
A stationary trailer tower, sure. A mobile tower while the field is being harvested sounds retarded and something I'd see at home.
What a freak accident that must have been.
The article states that there’s usually a requirement to be elevated so the rounds are aimed at the ground but that mobile towers are banned based on regional differences. That seems a tad counter productive.
i know hunting them from a moving platform like a mobile observation tower or a helicopter is seen as uncouth but it really is the only effective way to hunt feral pigs
