If the shed hunt results in a management concern or wildlife harassment then deal with it. Looks like this is what was done. But I also don't put it past any government to regulate anything that could be turned into a source of capital. I won't be surprised to see she'd hunting permits and or regulations taxing the sale of sheds in areas where this activity is most popular.

There was the same problem just north of Summerland with a few guys on sleds and quads with tracks harassing the wintering Mulie + Whitetail bucks.
MOE stepped in and put in place the Garnet Valley vehicle closer . It can happen in BC to .

That was a good thing. I used to see quad or sled tracks around ever juniper or cyonosis bush that I saw.

Have a quad or sled blasting around at 20-40km like they were doing back there covering every place they can cover in a day , is just a little diff than a set of boot tracks . Think about which one puts more stress on the deer. Not saying that hiking up in the hills isn't stress full in the winter time on the deer its just , hiking your just a bit limited in the ground you can cover .

That isn't how these shed hunting laws see it. The guy on foot is just as bad and needs to be stopped. Remember that all jurisdictions that brought in these shed bans had wildlife harassment and off road restrictions in place for years before they brought in shed seasons. It was the foot shed hunter that they were focusing on. BC has plenty of enforceable laws that can stop the illegal offroad or wildlife harassment as well to easily hit the problem without any new laws but yet there will be some that say it isn't enough without even having a clue how few shed hunters this province actually has. Why do they have a ton of people shed hunting in some of these states? Because it is the only opportunity many have to get out and 'hunt'. When everything is Limited Entry and you have to wait years and years to get a good tag, you are going to seek other methods to enjoy your passion in the mean time as you wait. Winter videoing, shed hunting, summer videoing, photography are all forms of outdoor activites that allow hunters to feel like they are hunting. But...there are many people who sit on the sidelines and complain when others are enjoying their past times. Jealousy and hatred towards others that have fun is rampant in the hunting community today. Think about it. Stuck in the city, doing the daily grind and log onto a hunting website or Facebook and IG and see tons of photos of guys enjoying the outdoors. Those photos just prove how bad your life sucks at that moment. And so you bitch and complain to the right people in government and you get those hobbies regulated to the point they ain't fun anymore.

Regulate and then charge for the privilege that was once a right. Some guys just can't get enough regulation and love to pay for what's already theirs.
