Yes there are hunters that behave like jackasses. For the most part these are deer hunters during gun season. Very few bow/arrow deer hunters behave poorly. Also most squirrel, or turkey hunters are well behaved. The style of hunting has a lot to do with the attitude in the woods.

In the boonies were I live, city anti-hunters are buying up 40 plus acres and posting signs every few feet. They allow no hunting and openly tell anyone that will listen how terrible hunting/hunters are.(they also are at a loss when their seedling trees, and flowers are grazed to nothing).

Add muzzle loader hunters to the well behaved list. However, in any group there is always a jerk or two around that make the rest look bad. This is too bad because hunters on a whole are nice people.(Me being one I would know.) That said, I have mixed feelings about cat hunting, or dog hunting as far as that goes.

Dogs can be very dangerous and I have been attacked by dogs several times in my life for no reaston other than the dog thought it was a good idea. I have yet to be viciously attacked by a cat, unless I tried to catch a wild one bare handed, this will get you a face full of claws.

Wild dogs cause as much damage, maybe more, than wild cats. They just hunt larger game I.E.: rabbits, deer, etc. and in some areas live stock.
