Hunting laws in general vary state by state but for the most part you can’t just go out and kill any random thing flying around. There generally has to be some sort of formal designation that a species can be hunted. Otherwise don’t kill it.


There's absolutely nothing stopping me from killing ants, or even stopping my cat from killing rats. Hunting is regulated, but it's not all species by default.


What law on the books says that it is legal for me to kill a dragonfly?
