PA GAME COMMISSION ANNOUNCES CHANGES TO MENTORED HUNTING PROGRAM

The Pennsylvania Game Commission has announced changes to its mentored hunting program.  The Trib reports that a licensed adult hunter can now bring up to three people, any combination of child or adult mentored hunters and junior hunters with them.  Previously, a mentor could only bring one mentored hunter or junior hunter with them Game commission spokesman Travis Lau said the biggest potential beneficiary is families with multiple children interested in hunting.  Opponents say that keeping an eye on all the children there would be a safety hazard for the hunter.
