spotlighters
Those who illuminate
Spotlighters are people who use spotlights, typically to illuminate wild animals at night.
The term most often refers to hunters who shine bright lights to freeze deer or other game in place, making them easy targets—a practice called spotlighting or jacklighting, which is illegal in most jurisdictions: Game wardens caught the spotlighters on a back road with a dead buck in the truck bed.
