Bills introduced in Michigan to prohibit drones for scouting game

     Drone aircraft are becoming increasingly popular these days. People are flying them in lots of places for lots of reasons, even for hunting purposes.

     A pair of bills slated for a hearing in the Michigan  House Natural Resources Committee would prohibit the use of remote flying devices by hunters to locate game animals, according to the Detroit Free Press.

     If passed, Michigan would join Alaska, Colorado, New Mexico and Montana, which have already banned drone use by hunters. The measures are supported by the state's largest sportsman's group, Michigan United Conservation Clubs (MUCC).
