The Idaho Department of Fish and Game is offering a reward for information on a poacher who they believe shot an antelope from a highway and left the animal’s carcass to rot.
The pronghorn antelope buck was found near Stanley on Aug. 14th by conservation officers. The animal was about 130 yards of Highway 75 near the Pettit Lake Road intersection.
The Idaho Department of Fish and Game believes the animal was shot from a vehicle on the highway with a small-caliber bullet, possibly a “22.”
A press release explains, Citizens Against Poaching is offering a reward to anyone who has information that may lead to the poacher.
