Well I came across an awful sight while passing through Lytton on Monday AM. :evil::(

Two young rams have been killed and left right beside the cemetery on Botanie Mtn Road. The CO's have been notified, attended the scene, and are now asking our help for information on this senseless act.

So my hope is that our HBC hunting community can come together to provide any details on this incident...

These were shot and killed sometime over the weekend Dec 10th or 11th from the little road leading to the cemetery.

If you saw anyone or a vehicle near the area please call the RAPP hotline. Any little details will help! You can remain anonymous if you like.

Lets catch the person(s) responsible!

i wonder if they were wounded, escaped since the ahole wasnt interested in working for it, then both died of their wounds a few hours later...sounds like someone either meat hunting with the wrong weapon and no ethics/morals, or someone just being a f tard. Either way tragic.

They did the same thing to the elk herd in there years back and they do it to everything else all over the province for some disgusting reason they do it cuz they know they wont get caught and if they somehow did absoulutly nothing would happen.

Yeah well, whatever...... the world's original conservationists should be proud.

Their brothers have knocked the moose population in the Nass from 1,700 to 500 by shooting everything with moose hair, regardless of years of pleas for some restraint. The bureaucrat's solution, take away the licensed hunter's very small bull-only LEH opportunity. And, to top it off, they (MFLNRO staff) claim they can't explain the drastic population decline because the last time they said too many cows were being shot they caught hell.

It's too bad the boys can't practice what they preach.

It might have had something to do with the grave yard being under them maybe? Something spooky going on, maybe a ritual killing by some lunatic in the area, probably lives close by. Could have a strong tie to the grave yard for some reason in their mixed up world, prolly got drunk on moon shine and a lil high on locoweed.
Full moon around this time? Any disputes about the sheep recently? Many questions that are going to be answered sooner than later. Some one was looking for ATTENTION! Made to look like they wanted it to look.

A lot of the inbreeders on here are quick to jump to conclusions about the ethnicity of the hunters. I can draw no conclusions on who did it, just from my experience I have found that typical traditional kills are fully utilized. Think about it for a second and ask yourself if you would leave something laying on the ground after you killed it if you absolutely 100% feel you have the right to kill it?
Someone mentioned the elk kill on here, yes that was a tragedy but, it wasn't a local group who did it and from what I hear the majority of the animals were picked up and used.
Furthermore a 17hmr is more of a play-play gun and I would think that the income of the typical FN in the area doesn't allow much room for such thrill purchases. Wasn't someone going around poaching deer like crazy in the Lilloet area? Where are those guys now? I hunt sheep there, and I hate to see this. I also hate to see mudslinging without proof, lots of people read this forum. Remarks regarding race and ethnicity are great ways to prove all of us are redneck idiots who have nothing better to do than point fingers and complain about others freedoms. Accept it or move to the united states, you have choices!

Its the nature of the beast. People on here are merely venting and expressing an opinion. Everyone though is asking "why?", and are rightfully angered.

Hopefully the culprits are found and convicted. As mentioned earlier, it will come by way of "loose lips, sink ships". I would be surprised if it was locals, and very disappointed in if it is.

Jelvis
12-17-2011, 10:41 PM
A person that would do something like that must have prior issues and must be known to some. By themselves most likely when he or she did that otherwise someone would talk. How close is that grave yard to a residents?
I can't see why someone from a long ways a way, say the Lower mainland would shoot and run, don't make sense.
I thought maybe some one don't like sheep so why? Maybe thought of them as an import from California and liked beef steaks and mule deer dint want sheep?
Or someone dint want sheep walking on their Uncle's grave etc who knows cuz it seems like a criminal act to us who appreciate all wildlife which are prey animals and obey the regulations and LEH results.
I think this person or persons will be caught by someone down the road as we look and listen and hope they do soon as possible.

Some natives don't like transplanted animals in the area they live in. Some don't want any animals in the area that have been migrated into the area by trucks and u-hauls. Desease control for the natural wildlife in the area.
Especially from another province or state.
One band in Region 3 was asked by the Bio's if they would like the idea of bringing in elk from a national park by the bands area to start up a herd? They said no way. And they wouldn't garrr in tee they wouldn't shoot them all. So that plan was scrapped.

Olympia and Edgar and others:

The guys were caught, they're from the Lytton band. They shot three rams, said they had "No idea" theyd shot 3 Rams, with multiple shots from a .17 HMR!!!!!
They claim they thought it was only one. By a cemetary, near houses. In the open.
Uhmmm yeahhh....
They then took the one ram back to the Rez, where they left it outside to rot. Acting on a tip (Another Band member?) The CO's got the rotting ram and the rifle.

The reason I bumped this thread is to find out if anyone knew if any punishment in any form was handed out to the guilty poaching thieving scum that did this.

Sorry, the only thing racist about any of this is the fact that I would bet NOTHING happened to these wankers, whereas if you were white, black, asian or hispanic you'd be rotting in prison.

Not racist at all. Racist is thrown around so much these days. So stupid. My buddy works in a hotel in Whistler and had to tell a room full of kids to shut up at 2 am. They were asian/cans. Called him a racist. Go figure.

So here is a helping of knowledge for all reading this thread regarding these young men who killed the sheep. I worked for the Lytton band this fall and talked a lot of hunting with the guys I worked with. They have bag limits for the band members. They follow the same seasons as we do. Will everyone follow the rules? Maybe not. Just like the rest of BC hunters a few bad apples spoil the bunch. They were choked at some other FN guys for taking elk around there when they are not supposed to. I brought up the sheep and they were ALL pissed at these guys for what they did. The guys had to go through the bands justice system as well as having to deal with a lot of angry locals. Pretty sure they learned their lesson.
One thing that seems to get lost in these threads is that the FN value the game as much and probably more than we do. Once again, bad apples.

I didn't hear any thing about confiscation. Didn't sound like it but from the way the guys I talked to(35+ year olds) were talking the shooters were in deep shit but only from the band. You know the laws Dude. It really was a big deal to all involved from the gist I got. It wasn't like they brushed it off as we can do what we want. Like any small town, young people screw up and learn from it. I don't want to sound like I know all the details but this was just a few things I took from the conversation.
It was cool talking to the guys there and hearing their stories about family and friends taking big bucks and other animals from over the years. They talked about the whitetails moving in and how they are in the Botaine valley now. Hunters are all the same.:) We just want to hunt.

http://www.castanet.net/content/2012/3/ram_p646378.jpg Photo: Trevor Rockliffe
This file photo shows a bighorn ram looks at the camera near Kamloops BC


Poaching has been ruled out as officials have found the hunters who shot two bighorn rams near Lytton, B.C., just before Christmas.
Conservation officer Bob Butcher says two Lytton men, aged 22 and 30, have confessed to shooting the sheep for food.
He says men were using a very small calibre rifle, which is illegal to use for big game, when they targeted a herd of bighorn sheep near the Fraser Canyon community, about 250 kilometres northeast of Vancouver.
Butcher says the men killed one sheep and took it home but had no idea they had mortally wounded two other rams, and the animals died later.
He says because poaching is not involved, the men will go through the restorative justice program and will not face criminal charges.
Butcher notes this case is unrelated to an incident near Clinton, north of Lytton, where three bighorn rams and one ewe were shot and dumped on ranch land, just days after the dead rams were found near Lytton. (CHNL)

Too many people have let it go for too long, which is why we have a two-tiered system of rights and punishments here.
And getting frowny faces from the rest of the band is a long way from being "dealt with" IMHO.
I was hoping for better news, but then again, you said you didn't hear it all, so I'll email the CO.

im sure plenty of natives have poached this past season and im sure plenty of non natives have poached and gotten away with it because of lack of co presence and lack of funding from the gov. we need to realize poaching/inter-galactic anal sex is the real enemy

They may have got away with it, but once hey are caught, how it is handled from there comes down to the color of your skin.

Wonder what the punishment would been for 2 white guys shooting those rams for food?

Apparently, the area where the rams were shot was not in a no-shooting zone... I don't know, but could probably ask the local cop who was shooting at geese at the ferry the other day here in Lytton (not that far from where the rams were shot, ferry is also located on Reserve land). He was shooting while the Ferrymen watched, maybe 100 yards from the ferry itself. Oh, and there is a house there right beside the ferry... and one two on the other side of the river right there.. Much closer to houses/people than where the non-fn cop was shooting... But hey, what do I know... right? Also, these rams weren't taken in an area where there are houses in the vicinity... the closest house in the direction of the shots is a few KM up the road you see in the one picture, and the rest are on the other side of the mountain... just putting that out there.

Even having spent the year working here I still haven't found out who these Poachers were. (Yes, they were young native guys... using a USELESS calibre.. they were also Shooting on Reserve land). It still makes me sick how they shot the rams wasted all of them, hell i'd love to pay them a visit myself. I was hoping to harvest one of them in season in the future, (I know where they hang out ;))

I saw about 20 rams sunday, according to what some say about native rights I could have dropped any one of them. Too bad they weren't in season and the 3 biggest still wouldn't have been big enough to pass the Regs definition for the area(s). Darn, hey? Well... I guess not all of us natives like to go out and kill anything we see.


There are a LOT more natives who follow the rules than you people give credit for, but hey... it's the internet and some of you know everything, right?


Close this thread, haven't these rams been beaten to death enough already? Letting it continue is just a black mark on this forum IMO

All anyone is saying beni, is that those pukes should be punished. Severely. And we ALL agree on that.

Check the Lyton castanet thread I'm setting up a meeting with some members here and anyone interested to join the team.
I can help set it up but won't be going myself.
Jel .. Noahdawg would be someone who could be a major player here also?
