Surprised the charges stuck ?


Hamlyn added that the moose was shot within 400 metres of the Alaska Highway, which is also a hunting violation. He said that though Callbreath is First Nations, he was not hunting within his traditional territory and therefore was subject to the same hunting regulations as anyone else who is not a member of Treaty 8.

On Thursday, Callbreath pleaded guilty to Killing Wildlife not in open season and Unlawful Possession of Wildlife, while two other charges were stayed. Charges against another woman were also stayed. Callbreath received a three-year hunting prohibition, meaning he cannot hunt outside his traditional territory. He was also handed $2,300 in fines and had the rifle used to illegally hunt the two moose confiscated by the COS.

its a start...

Ya. Not enough in my opinion

This is good news.....still too light tho. Obvious disregard to do same with bull after getting pinched with the cow earlier that day....3 year ban wont stop this guy. Should have confiscated vehicle and auctioned off with proceeds to wildlife. Penalties should be higher for all poachers.
