All reports are confidential and are forwarded to a Conservation Police Officer for investigation. To recognize illegal acts, a basic knowledge of conservation regulations is necessary. Hunting out of season and hunting at night with spotlights are two of the most obvious signs of poaching. Hunters and fishermen possessing more than the legal limit is another. Slow moving or partially hidden vehicles, shots heard at unusual hours or game being concealed are all suspect.
Pollution is another concern that can adversely affect wildlife.
Dumping trash or other waste near a waterway can kill fish and other aquatic life. All of this information may be invaluable to an enforcement investigation. Call or e-mail our office immediately. Accurate and timely information is essential. It robs legitimate sportsmen of game and fish, robs businesses and taxpayers of revenues generated by hunting and fishing, and robs us and future generations of a valuable resource - our wildlife.
