Tennessee deer hunters will be able to hunt over bait on private land starting this coming season, thanks to a new law signed by the governor earlier this month.⁠ ⁠ The legislation, which received strong support from state politicians, creates a baiting privilege license for deer hunters in the Volunteer State. The new law drops at a time when other states, like Washington, are banning baiting to attempt to reduce the spread of CWD. Wildlife advocates worry about CWD and fairness, while landowners push back on fees.⁠ ⁠ Tap the link in profile for the full story 🔗⁠ ⁠ #hunting #huntingseason #deer #deerseason #deerhunting #whitetail #whitetaildeer #tennessee #outdoors #nature #outdoorlife⁠ 📷: Doug McLean⁠ Story by: alicejoneswebb
