POSTING FOR A FRIEND..
Regs question: Actually 2 that will seem like the same.
1. Are you allowed to take non-licensed hunters along with you as long as they don’t carry a weapon? Reason behind ? Is that I have a son-in-law who residence is from another country but resides in TN with my daughter who is in school. He will not hunt but would like to tag along sometime.
2. My nephew (also from a different state) will be here to deer hunt (yes, he has license) and wants to tag along during our trap checks. Can he do so without a trapping license as long as he doesn’t help in any way?
Thanks

An individual who is actively hunting (pursue, chasing, taking, attempting to take) or trapping is required to have a license for the particular species being hunted or a trapping license. For example, a person can accompany me deer hunting without needing a license as long as they are not participating in any way. The same thing would apply to an individual who tags along to observe you tending your traps. However, the person, if over the age of twelve, cannot accompany me raccoon hunting because the chasing is a large portion of the hunt.
