Drones in Hunting, Ethical or Not?
Episode description
Nothing, and I mean nothing, is worse than losing an injured animal. I would go so far as to argue that when it comes to finding that animal and ending its suffering, it’s unethical not to use every available tool in your toolbox. One tool that we can potentially add to our arsenal is the use of drones. Mike Yoder is on the leading technological edge of hunting with his company, Drone Deer Recovery. If you lose a deer in the state of Ohio, Mike can meet you with his $20,000 thermal imaging drone and locate your dead or injured animal relatively quickly. But of course, many states don’t allow the use of drones in recovery (or hunting) period. I’m fascinated by this concept, and I want to hear your thoughts. Is drone recovery ethical or not?
