I'm sure this policy is in place to discourage intentional "one shot/two kills" cheaters and has nothing to do with abusing the authority of the uniform, badge and gun.
How could this happen?
LOTS of caribou, maybe.

Know what is behind your target.

He immediately contacted Alaska Wildlife Troopers to report the violation and salvaged meat from the caribou, as required by law...
...reminded hunters to self-report hunting violations, saying that while a citation for taking an animal illegally is likely, “you will receive a substantially lower fine and other potential leniency compared to not self-reporting.”

I would like to know how this is a story worthy of being reported?? This type of incident probably happens several times a year. If you are not sure of your shot don’t take it unless you have 2 tags of course but still not a good idea. I think there is some kind of conspiracy in the news to make hunters and other gun owners look bad. Trying to build momentum for a gun and hunting ban I am sure.

One of our local game wardens accidently killed 2 turkeys this way, wrote himself a ticket.

Col. Cooper always said, “Use enough gun!”
Perhaps, too much gun, or maybe a really thin first caribou?

What about know your target and have a clear shot?

I heard that both of the caribou were named Cecil.

Did that deer hunting one time. Killed the first one and knocked the one behind down. Went over and capped the one that was down and filled both tags at one time.

My suggestion is that a hunter gets a get out of jail free card for the first time, but on probation for the next 10 or 15 years.
Should cover accidents, but not allow ‘gaming’.

Good argument for 6.5mm or 7mm match bullets.

Hunter shoots at 1 caribou, hits 2 and is cited for being over limit Damn!
And here I thought that for a crime charge to be valid there must be the element of intent!
