New York Bans Online Hunting New York has joined a growing list of states to ban Internet hunting, reports the Associated Press. The state's new law includes a fine of up to $2,500 for those who partake in online hunting or set up an online hunting Web site. A number of other states are considering similar bills. NSSF was a key supporter of the New York bill and provided assistance in assuring the bill would not inadvertently prevent hunting in the field by handicapped persons through the use of technology.
