Two waterfowl hunters, whose names were not provided, navigate in a boat after hunting at Tomales Bay Ecological Reserve in Bivalve, Calif. on Saturday, Nov. 17, 2012. A newly-formed environmental group called Action Tomales Bay is seeking to petition the California Department of Fish and Game to stop waterfowl gaming in the Reserve. Though waterfowl gaming is currently legal and regulated, members of the action argue that the gaming creates unacceptable noise disturbances during early morning and evening hours and puts recreational users of the bay at risk. Hunters, however, reason that hunting in the reserve has been going on safely for generations and participants are just as environmentally conscious as their opponents.
