Man hunting deer bags bull elk instead.

Once owned property in Astabula Cty, Ohio...

went grouse hunting and ended up talking to neighbor next to me.
His son goes and a trophy mount of a PRONGHORN antelope. that two years before escaped from the Zoo @ Erie, Pa.

Took it to the check station and the crew took info and some tissue and let him keep it.

ok that guy needs to take his hunters safety course again. (they will be requiring that here in manitoba next year) but that aside. its good that the warden let him keep the meat. I am dead against poaching, but even when an animal is taken illegally, i feel that the meat/fur shouldnt be taken away. i bet alot of it gets thrown out.
about the species that "arent there" who would have thought that cougars would be in the southern prairies of manitoba. apparently green peace planted them there to manage the deer population they ended up killing more livestock than anything. And they have "mysteriously" disappeared.... and suddenly (except this year) we were allowed a second (antlerless) deer tag
