My thanks to the Birchwood police and the local prosecutor who I'm sure will see that they're not hunting "big bucks" for a few years.

Musta been city slickers. Nobody who has hunted regularly would believe they just lucked onto a herd of wild "big deer".

[noutopia]

Idiots,if they cant tell the difference between an elk and a deer. In Idaho I knew a rancher that painted cow on his stock during elk season,because of the out of state hunters,mostly from California.

Hold muh beer an' watch me shoot that big deer!

Lets see not have a Elk license, shooting from to close to a road,shooting Elk out of season=poaching Elk doubtful they will get prison county lock up maybe as well as loss of the firearms,fines, siezure of vehicle Gonna be a real interesting conversation across the dinner table when these goofs get back home & have to explain why the car is now missing & the savings account has been emptied.

The two men, after getting out of a pickup truck, shot from about 200 yards away at the animals, which were in a clearing on an elk farm and behind an 8-foot high fence. The fence was about 175 yards off the road and the shooters were about 20 feet from the road, according to the complaint.

I know kids 10-12 years old smarter than that.

Their claims of confusion should be rejected outright...no one is that stupid.

Waste of a lot of good meat. Elk tastes better than beef.

Mr. Weatherhead said he found 11 shell casings where the men had fired their rifles. The two men admitted they did see and shoot at numerous "deer" but did not know how many they had hit, said the complaint.

11 shots, six wounded animals - not one kill. Pathetic shooting. I'm curious though - the article doesn't say how these three were caught - did they approach the clearing, find a eight foot fence, and walked to the farm's entrance to get at the 'deer' that they hit?

Let's see, one man from Minnesota, one from Ohio, the crime happened in__________.

[TheBattman]

Ummm...mistook ELK for DEER? I don't see how that could happen at ANY yardage...

Of course, these guys were obviously either drunk or stoned - and were hunting illegally anyway. What idiots.

[editor-surveyor]

Too bad that you don't need to pass an eye test, and an IQ test to get a hunting license.
