Special Olympics is a program to Small Game Hunters Must Wear Orange This Season Many rabbit and quail hunters across the state will take something new to the woods when the season opens Saturday ? blaze orange. State lawmakers extended the or ange garment requirement to small game hunters this year as requested by the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission. Mandatory orange for big game hunters has been credited with sav ing lives since in went into effect in 1987, according to a state news re lease. Since that law was passed, wildlife officers have reported a marked drop in the number of hunting accidents in which the vic tim was mistaken for game. This year, hunters of rabbit, squir rel, grouse, pheasant and quail are required to wear fluorescent orange that is visible from all sides. Some small game hunters started wearing blaze orange voluntarily in recent years because they felt safer in the woods, said Capt. Wilton Pate, who heads the wildlife com mission's hunter safety program. "We probably have as close to 1(X) percent compliance as we are going to get," Pate said. "Most of the big game hunters complied im mediately, and we've seen many small game hunters wear orange when they were not required to wear it." Blaze orange won't help reduce the number of self-inflicted wounds or falls from tree stands. Pate said many of those hunting-related acci dents occur due to carelessness. The new blaze orange require ment for small game will be en forced with warning tickets until Octobcr 1992. After that, any viola tion of the law will result in a S25 fine. The rabbit, quail and grouse sea sons run from Nov. 23 through l-'eb. 29. The season for gray and red squirrel runs from Oct. 14 to Jan. 31, and the fox squirrel season runs from Oct. 14 to Dec. 31. i'?M ?*p'vi ~ ? nw<9 - V ? il'.1 TIME OUT. i.'ivv;/-.' ?&? Wa i?
