You can't believe it. And even then, the job is not what it used to be. Poachers, for example, have become much more sophisticated. Instead, poachers put bait piles outside the windows of their homes. Texas poachers use night-vision goggles to shoot trophy bucks on private lands.
Poachers run ATVs off the front of the boats, and away they go.
Most of these high-tech wildlife criminals are not out to put an extra deer in the freezer for the family. They're out to make money. People killed game illegally because they needed it. But I don't think there was anywhere near the waste or the abuse of the resource that there is today. In Texas, trophy deer heads bring big prices.
