The guy who got others to shoot, should be in big trouble. Hunting on Federal property without the proper permission? Shooting at animals that are not on your property? Bad.
“In an arrest warrant, investigators say the bulk of the bison 14 of them were killed on land owned by Catherine Pimm. Eight were killed on Bureau of Land Management property, four on U.S. Forest Service property, three on property of Robert Lemm and three on Hawn’s ranch.”
ikka caught the same thing I did reading this article.
Although I can sympathize with Hawn, having his property destroyed by someone else’s animals, he was willing to break the law.
You can’t legally go onto federal property and shoot animals. Or someone else’s property, without permission of the landowner (or feds).
