[Vision2020] Moose Poaching

[Carl Westberg]

If there is such a thing as heaven or hell, there must be a special place in 
hell for a person who would needlessly harm or kill an animal.  It's quite 
possible that the only lower form of life is a Boise State fan.

>fish & game seeks help solving moose poaching
>
>MOSCOW - The Idaho Department of Fish and Game (IDFG)
>is seeking information concerning the recent shooting
>of a cow and calf moose in Meadow Creek of northern
>Latah County.
>
>Both moose are thought to have been shot from a nearby
>road and within the last 15 days. Both moose were
>removed from the area.
>
>Anyone having knowledge about these crimes or other
>wildlife-related violations are encouraged to call the
>toll-free CAP hotline at 1-800-632-5999, their local
>conservation officer or any law enforcement authority.
>Callers will remain anonymous and a cash reward of
>$500 is available if the information is sufficient for
>a citation or a warrant to be issued. A conviction is
>not necessary.
>
>"Hunters should be outraged," said Clint Rand, IDFG
>conservation officer based in Moscow. "Not only did
>the poachers break the law, but they stole from every
>ethical hunter wanting a chance to hunt moose."
>
>Moose hunting in Idaho is restricted to those who are
>successful in a lottery drawing for a limited number
>of tags. Every illegal killing of a moose takes an
>opportunity away from a legal hunter who would like to
>have the rare opportunity.
