If we let people from out of province to participate on this forum we would be seeing more interesting things, and learn a lot.  but I just found out the other day that non-Newfoundlanders are not permited on this site.  Too bad.  Exclusivity is a clear sign of insecurity and a loss of vision.  We could learns so much from hunters across the continent.  This video is beautiful and because it is posted by a NL'er it is allowed, I am glad for it.  But we will never see dear hear in NL..  I wish we did, they are a great animal to hunt.  I say we should allow anyone to participate on this forum, the things we could learn from abroad are endless.

  Deer carry a parasite that is deadly to moose , as I understand it , so speaking for myself I would rather have the moose. The internet has made this type of information, as well as information of any kind ,available to anyone who wishes to acquire it , which the post clearly shows. As for the site being exclusive to Newfoundlanders , Only , one must bear in mind that our style of hunting , due to necessity, is different than in other areas of the world , especially in the U.S. where it is considered unethical to stalk waterfowl and shoot at them on the water, among other things . It may very well be that opening  the site to the world could  be opening a Pandora's Box . However , whether or not the site remains exclusive to us , or not , I will leave in the hands of those who make these decisions.  Just some thoughts.

Come on. Newfoundlanders are smart enough to know the difference. Protectionism breeds prejudice or arrogance. Everyone’s style of hunting is different where ever you go, even on the Island or Labrador. There could be a lot learned from fellow hunters from away. Newfoundlanders are smart hunters but we certainly don't have the market cornered on how it could be done best.
