PHOENIX â Arizona is moving to ban the use of trail cameras to take video or photos to aid hunting, with regulators saying the widespread practice runs counter to a doctrine that prey animals should have a chance to get away and that hunters shouldnât rely on their skills, not technology. The state Game and Fish Commission unanimously approved the ban during a June 11 meeting in Payson and plans to start implementing it as early as next January. Achieving the Jan. 1 target date depends on education and training, commission Chairman Kurt Davis told the Arizona Republic. Under the prohibition, cameras could no longer be placed at or near watering holes and other locations to help hunters by locating wildlife. The cameras are often triggered by motion and store pictures or videos to be viewed later.
