3-12 10 person "group moose" draw?

[RadHimself]

found a bull moose in 3-12,dead in a cutblock. upon further inspection noticed that the throat and guts were cut a bit too cleanly for wolf teeth... in a straight line, knife like, branches and other odds an sods piled up on its antlers, if it wasnt for my dog i never woulda noticed it from the road, soon as i got out of my truck the wind was just right i could smell it.

other side of the hill from the moose body, in the valley below i spotted trailers, on the skid trails leading up to this cut from that side of the mtn, i noticed side by side tracks, a mud flap and an orange bungy cord.

i walked back to my truck, b-lined it down the main and looped around to get a look at this campsite.

sure as shit they have a side by side.

ran into another couple vehicles down the road, got chatting about moose n such... apparently these guys have a group draw for 10 tags... but theres a problem, i ran into half of these guys returning to 3-12 from 8-21.... bragging about all the moose they've killed already. Been up there since saturday..


i have a pic of the moose kill

alot of native traffic in the area, but they usually only leave hair and gut piles...

pm me if this interests you, i got more info


id like to know if this "group draw" actually went through or not

beer,guns and moose corps's.... seems suspect to me

If you have suspicions, call the RAPP line ASAP after witnessing the events.

Where in 3-12 is this? I'll be out this week

[elkhunterette]

How do you get a 10 person group draw? I thought a 3 person was the max.

If you have suspicions, call the RAPP line ASAP after witnessing the events.

Do this if you haven't already.

[Whonnock Boy]

This exactly, and don't hesitate! Observe, record, and report. There are a total of 7 tentative bull authorizations for 3-12, and 10 tentative authorizations in 8-21. The odds of them having half of them as a group is fairly suspect.


If you have suspicions, call the RAPP line ASAP after witnessing the events.

Send a CO up there! If its legit they will have nothing to hide. If they are doing it illegally they will get their asses handed to them. The CO gets paid just the same.

[stinkyduck]

There is no excuse for that crap!! RAPP

[Brew]

Hope you have plate numbers. Call rapp

[walks with deer]

sound super greasy especially with the hidden bull.

call it in..

i had someone tell me they got a group hunt on a region 8 any ram draw..

[stinkyduck]

Group ram draw......eh? Id be talking lots with that guy before i could make the call.

this should be common sense.

[RadHimself]

^ was just confirming it seemed as greasy as it looked

i live at the bottom of the basin, it's only a 30 min drive of a beat ass logging road to these guys for me.

im up there 3/4 days a week when im not working and have litterally spent 1/2 my life in that bush

The next time you see something fishy, you need to phone it in right away. The CO will decide if it seems "greasy" enough to follow up on, but if it needs follow-up, hesitating for a day or two will often give slime balls the time they need to cover their tracks or to take care of business. Either way, it makes the COs job harder the more after the fact it is.

if it feels fishy, call RAPP immediately. Let them make the call.

[Quince]

Report... Report report

[RadHimself]

Well, so far the CO's dont seem to interested

[Linksman313]

Hope you have plate numbers. Call rapp
X2 what Brew said, and be careful out there, never know what some yahoos are capable of if they suspect you're on to them

[HarryToolips]

As others have said get on that phone now please...

[M.Dean]

Any chance you can post the pic you've got? Sounds to me like someone tried to hide the moose a bit, so maybe they could get it out in the dark and go back for more?

[boxhitch]

Well, so far the CO's dont seem to interestedwhat makes you say that? What did they say they needed for details?

[jbruce]

no shit,
call already!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[RadHimself]

i called it in... the co's were more intertested in killing a bunch of fallow deer in enderby apparently

well you did what you could...likely will be too late by the time they decide to follow up with it.

[RadHimself]

i called less then 2hrs after i seen the whole ordeal

[Rob Chipman]

Post the pic, post the location.

COs are understaffed. The fact that they won't/can't attend isn't the issue. The issue is shooting a moose and leaving it. No hunter does that. The more light that gets shined on every instance of this, the better. If you don't want it attached to your name send it to me. I'll post it.
