I guarantee you have exactly this in Maine. Aroostook county is more rural than almost all of Vermont and honors their hunting traditions more than vermont does.

Actually last I checked Maine allowed bear trapping whereas Vermont does not.

This is not a Vermont specific thing.

I try to understand how many people moving in think that hunting, trapping, and shooting are nonexistent or banned in Vermont. Or even worse, decided they should be. Are we portrayed as one large quaint suburb dotted with hip cities? We're more than wine tastings, VPR tapings, and "hobby farms" that are really just estates with a tax break. If you want tightly controlled suburbs, why not consider western Massachusetts and CT? No unleashed dogs or unenlightened rural people to ruin the vibe there.

I could go on for hours about this topic.

I used to live in Presque Isle, saw plenty of trapping and every now and then someone’s dogs would drive a few cattle through our property. Never saw any people supervising them so I kinda wonder what those dogs were getting up to.

And presque isle is still pretty populated compared to the rest of the county.

Probably. Like I said as far as I know.
