Season 2 - Episode 41 - Examining Your Hunter Ethics and Morality - a podcast by Heidi Lyn Rao

Aldo Leopold, the father of wildlife management, said "Ethical behavior is doing the right thing when no one else is watching, even when doing the wrong thing is legal."  To put it another way, good hunting ethics are not usually covered by written laws.  Rather, referred to as the "unwritten law," the real question is:  What is the definition of ethics?  

Not everyone has identical morality, nor do they rank their morals and ethics the same.  Just as you would not someone to impose their own beliefs or ethics upon you, forcing your own beliefs on others or accusing them of being unethical while following game laws, could, in itself, be considered unethical behavior!
