Could a land owner give you permission to shoot and trap in Safety Zones? Even if the owner gives you permission could you get fined? Would the warden first ask the land owner if it was OK for such and such person to shoot or trap in a safety zone before fining them? Would a hunter or trapper need written permission or if confronted would knocking on the homeowners do be sufficent to confirm that someone does have permission to hunt or trap inside the safety zone?
Reason I ask this is that I was just looking at the Game Law codes and it area on Safety Zones. It spelled out the law but said nothing of waivers if the land owner allowed you to do this.

that is what I am wondering as well. before it had to be written permission.

I don't think it would hurt to have it in writing though.

Permission does not have to be in writing but of course it always helps make things easier.
