Absolutely. One may just take it as an extension of the lack etiquette and maturity.
As far as \"closet baiting\" is concerned, unfortunately, there is no way to avoid the practice.
I do not agree with baiting, period. Baiting out of sight does not make it right but \"Out of sight, out of mind\". This said, when I find out that a friend is baiting, I most definetly question and challenge the rationallity of it (in a friendly manner of course). Wildlife photographer\'s better friends usually share the same views on many subject: ethics about baiting is certainly one of them. If not we agree to disagree and rarely share time together in the field; especially with certain species. But there again, most friends will show respect for the non baiter on a particular outing. This is usually very civil.
