Did you not read my earlier post saying the first thing they teach you in the course you have to take to own a hunting licence is make darn sure you're shooting at what you think you are shooting at.

It's illegal to shoot a mule-deer doe in most states, but not a whitetail doe. Do you know what the difference between those two deer are, if you're a hunter and you have a doe tag and you spot an antlerless deer? Well, if you're a hunter, and you've bought the license, you better make sure that's not a mulie, other wise you're about to get fined through the nose. For a mistake. That is really easy to make.

In other words, a deer hunter is expected to know the difference between two nearly identical species of deer that most people don't even know there is a difference. If you're shooting dogs, you're not following the rules. It's exactly like failing to yield and getting in a fenderbender; it was an accident, but you are still liable because to even have the right to drive you already took a course and passed a test saying you know you shouldn't do that, because if you do it at the wrong time people could die horrible, painful deaths.

Because accidents happen, but shooting blind and hitting something you're not supposed to is preventable.
