is this harassment

Yup, chain it. Also depends on what authority they have in a "resort of wildlife" when it is private property. Some Wildlife Acts can take away land ownership "rights" with respect to wildlife (we don't actually have rights on a freehold). Here in NB we have no right to close our property to allow hunting by owner and invited guests only, if we hunt on the property we have to allow reasonable access to others with permission under the wildlife act.

I'm confused. Aren't "others with permission" , guests -- by deffinition ?

I hunt waterfowl on private ground (farmland -- yellow discs) every year. There's a locked gate. Some of the ponds we jump are amongst cattle most years.

In any event hunting this property is absolutely by permission only.

Are you saying anyone is free to hunt his land here in NB because the farmer and his family hunt the land .... Or that he can't lock the gate on me because he has allowed me to hunt there? Or have I missed your point entirely ?

All the yellow discs mean is that nobody can hunt there without permission.

If your land is posted red that means no hunting by anyone, including yourself. If your land is posted yellow it means hunting by permission only.
If it's posted yellow you can hunt there, and if someone asks your permission to hunt there, you can let them have a crack at it, or you can tell them to take a hike.
Just because it's posted yellow, doesn't mean you have to let anyone that asks permission to hunt there, on your property.

That's how I understand how it is written too, red is no one hunts, yellow is by permission, blue is agricultural land and people can hunt, but not motorized vehicles.

If I own it, noone is coming on it. Period. What the hell is this colored disk garbage? With all due respect, it sounds idiotic.

Like Coldshot said earlier, the way things are written in NB if it's posted, people are "supposed" to follow the rules, and if it's not posted, anyone can hunt without permission.

It's much different than many provinces where you need permission before you ever set foot on someone else's land. It's like locks though, they really only keep out the honest crooks.
