This is an interesting thread and although I've not done much tagging of protected areas, there are millions of acres of such areas in Alaska, most of which do not yet have the level of comprehensive tagging being discussed here. I came across this article from a major Alaskan newspaper and while i

So, Germany has hunting regulations even more complex and restrictive than those in the US (which are already complex). But in both countries, hunting is largely practiced as an aid to conservation - thinning the herd, which would otherwise undergo horribly destructive boom-and-bust cycles for want

I wonder whether a simple hunting=yes is sufficient. In Belgium you can only hunt for a limited period of the year and even within that period there are sub-periods for different animals. Hunting in Flanders is often on fields and meadows, but you have to stay at least 150m (AFAIK) away from the ho
