Wisconsin to vote to abolish the minimum age of hunters

The proposal of the Republican Joel Kleefisch causes discussion: so far the ten-year rule for children accompanied by a guide has been respected.

Woodcock hunting in the woods
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterSend WhatsApp

Woodcock hunting in the woodsHunting is not a topical topic only in Italy. Even in the United States we are talking about it a lot, more precisely in relation to the state of the Wisconsin, who has proposed a law to establish the minimum age that hunters must have. Until now, the ten-year rule has been respected for children who can use a firearm, as long as there is a guide to help them. Just today the Natural Resources Committee of the state assembly will vote on the rule that could eliminate the minimum age required for hunting, thus allowing both the child and the guide to use the weapon.

The proposal inevitably sparked discussions and controversies. In particular, hunting safety instructors do not consider abolition useful, indeed they are agree that you want to keep the limit that has remained in force until now. Some of these instructors wanted to remember how many kids do not understand that hunting is not a game, without forgetting the fact that such small hands are often unable to handle sophisticated weapons such as shotguns.

There are 41 US states that currently guarantee the support of a guide in youth programs dedicated to hunting, while 34 are those who allow participation in these courses even to those under the age of 10. The creator of the law to be voted today is Joel Kleefisch, Republican Party official and former television reporter, who said he was certain that parents will be able to decide when it is time to let their children become hunters.

The main objective of his proposal, as he has repeatedly stated, is to ensure safety. Kleefisch also explained how many other stars and stripes states have increased the number of hunters with no safety concerns and without using excessively oppressive legislation. The main concerns of those who are against the law, on the other hand, have to do with the possible increase in tragedies in the woods, as the inexperience of children it shouldn't be underestimated.

Incidentally, Wisconsin did register an increase in hunting licenses with an accompanying guide from just over 19 thousand to over 31 thousand in the space of four years, data that was published by the Department of Natural Resources. The law was sponsored by several associations, including the National Rifle Association (NRA), the state bear hunter associations and those that defend the rights of gun owners in Wisconsin.
