poaching

3 men get fines and jail time for poaching in Oregon.

In November of 2022, Oregon State Police reported that fish and wildlife troopers from the Pendleton Area Command received information on several individuals who were unlawfully taking big game animals.

Authorities say a mule deer buck was killed last month with a pellet gun within the city limits of Pocatello.

In the world of hunting, there's do's and don'ts.  This is definitely a don't.

I've always heard, the number one rule in hunting on private land is to get permission. When in doubt, clear out.  Oregon State Patrol and Department of Wildlife officials are looking for these two men, and possibly a third, in connection with three elk which were found to have been killed illegally. Their bodies and meat were left to rot.

The 2016-17 winter was a particularly harsh one not only for humans but apparently wildlife as well..an eastern Oregon man from Wallowa was arrested after 20+ rotting elk carcasses were discovered on his property and nearby

After a February search of a ranch near Wallowa, Oregon, Fish and Wildlife officials have filed at least 12 charges of poaching elk out of season on his ranch.

A Bend, OR man is facing multiple charges, thousands in fines and a permanent hunting ban after leading numerous illegal hunting expeditions, and shooting elk and buffalo.
