DEER HUNT, POT CROPS ARE AN ODD MIX

It's an interesting dynamic for DNR Warden Randy Stark to suggest that
hunters be watchful for possible "pot crops" in Wisconsin woods.
Instead, how about a suggestion for hunters to watch for other public
safety hazards such as hunters who may have had too much legal alcohol
while hunting?

Wisconsin deer hunters are knowledgeable and conscientious enough to
go out hunting without any advice, especially coming from the DNR.

I suggest hunters be totally sober and safe while hunting, wear blaze
orange and know where other hunters could be. And if someone who has
had too much legal alcohol attempts to go deer hunting, do what you
can to keep that hunter out of the woods.

As for "stumbling" across a pot-growing operation, you may as well
stop, unload your rifle, quit hunting and try a sample of the possible
"crop" just to make sure of the quality. Then move on, minding your
own business.
