Buck mule deer poached near Baggs

Baggs Game Warden Kim Olson is looking for information on a buck mule deer killed on the morning of Nov. 3, on Weber Mesa, just north of Baggs, near the radio tower. The antlers were sawed off of the head and the back straps and three quarters were taken.

“This deer was poached out of season and probably was a rather large deer,” Olson said. “Some local hunters found the carcass and reported the incident on the Stop Poaching Hotline. More help is needed to catch these poachers and I am hoping someone saw something that could help me solve this case.”

Anyone with information on these or any wildlife violation may also call the Stop Poaching Hotline at 1-877-WGFD-TIP (877) 943-3847. Tips may be reported to Baggs Game Warden Kim Olson at (307) 383-2160 or online at wgfd.wyo.gov. Tips may also be reported to the Green River Game and Fish Office at (307) 875-3223. Callers can remain anonymous and may be eligible for a cash reward of up to $5,000 if the information leads to a conviction.
