Fish and Game Seeks Information on Pronghorn Poaching

The Idaho Department of Fish and Game is seeking the public's assistance in tracking down the person or persons responsible for using a vehicle to run down four pronghorn in an agricultural field west of Mud Lake, bordering the Idaho National Laboratory, south of State Highway 33. Three does and a fawn were killed. The incident occurred just after midnight on Thursday, August 27, 2015. An agricultural worker had noticed vehicle headlights in the field during the evening and notified Fish and Game when the animals were found dead the next day. A violation of this nature could result in a reward of up to $1,000 to the person providing information leading to apprehension of those responsible for this senseless waste of Idaho's wildlife. Anyone with information about this incident or any other poaching can anonymously call the 24-hour Citizens Against Poaching Hotline at 1-800-632-5999.
