Got to be careful with these poaching laws. Some of those poaching are in dire straights. They made the fines so high in N. Calif. and the penalty so drastic the people started to shoot the wardens. Got less jail time for shooting a warden than having a out of season doe in your possession.

We had a game warden murdered in PA just a few months ago. He caught a guy spotlighting (hunting at night). The guy was a convicted felon who had served time and was still on parole. The bastard killed the warden rather than be arrested again and sent back to prison. The warden left a wife and a couple of kids as I recall.

It can be dangerous out in those woods at times.
