    Government sactioned poaching

    This happened before and the CO's wouldn't touch it. Well this morning the same guy posted it openly on his facebook page that he got another one.



    It's claimed the moose are disappearing due to over hunting. Yet there is no open season for Elk in this region. In fact there was only a single small herd in this area. How are they supposed to get into the area and maybe flourish to replace the declining moose population?

    More details would be nice and also interesting. Might be a legit reason the COS can't do anything, or maybe not.

    Nationality is the only reason. They said because of that and because it was on private property they won't do anything about it even though they admitted it wasn't allowed.

    Was it on the private land of the guy who shot it?

    No it was on the private land of a rancher. He got permission of the land owner to hunt Elk on his property.

    Nationality! I was born in North Vancouver, or should I say I was born on Tsleil-Waututh land, I should be able to get my status. If someone is born in Canada they become a Canadian citizen. I was born on Tsleil-Waututh land, I should be able to get my status. I'm sure i'll be corrected but the reasoning makes sense to me.
