If my neighbor were to attack me in my front yard at night, I could shoot him under “Stand your ground/Castle Doctrine”. I am not concerned about my neighbors-they are all great people.
In North Carolina it is illegal to hunt coyotes at night (with or without a light). We have lost many chickens over the past year. This winter the coyotes were bold enough to come outside my bedroom window.
Last month we had a rabid beaver on the farm that my dogs killed. I do not want to risk rabies, if I run into a coyote on the farm at night my plans are to shoot to kill.
Can anyone state a General Statue that will cover this situation, or does the “Stand your ground/Castle Doctrine” need revision to include dogs and dangerous animals (wolfs, coyotes, bears).
Maybe someone from Grass Roots North Carolina can comment on what General Statue would address a dog or wild animal. My concern is rabies.
