Over 150 geese and ducks were dumped along Highway 46 north of Gooding and left to rot.

According to Conservation Officer Trevor Meadows, “The birds were dumped prior to November 15th. This is an egregious situation of wasting waterfowl. If anyone witnessed a vehicle in the pull-off just north of the Camas and Gooding county line, please let us know a description of the vehicle or the occupants.”

At this time, this is a situation of wanton waste.
