Question: Is it legal to use an electronic distress caller to hunt deer? I can't seem to find it in the regulations.

Answer: It is not legal to use recorded or electrically amplified bird or mammal calls or sounds or recorded or electrically amplified imitations of bird or mammal calls or sounds to take any animal except coyotes, bobcats, American crows and starlings (see Fish and Game Code, Section 3012 and CCR Title 14, Section 475(b), or the California Mammal Hunting Regulations at http://dfg.ca.gov/regulations/).
