The Idaho Department of Fish and Game received a report of duck carcasses dumped on the side of Hall Road in McCammon. The report came through the Citizens Against Poaching (CAP) hotline on Christmas Day.
Senior Conservation Officer Nick Noll responded to find about a dozen dead ducksâa mixture of common goldeneyes, gadwalls, and mallards. Some of the ducks were cleaned with breast meat removed. Others had been left to wasteâa violation of Idaho Code 36-1202 which addresses the wasteful destruction of game birds.

âI just want people to be aware that if you harvest waterfowl, it is the law that you take the edible portions of those birds home with you â in this case, the breast meat,â says Noll. âItâs a shame that these birds were wasted and then thrown off the road in view of the publicâs eye.â

Idaho Fish and Game officials are investigating the recent illegal shooting of two moose near Moscow Mountain.
The remains from a cow and calf moose were found on Moscow Mountain near Hatter Creek Sunday December 20. It is believed both moose were killed earlier the same day. No moose hunting seasons were open at the time the animals were killed and no hunting seasons exist for cow moose throughout the Clearwater region due to concerns regarding moose population levels.
Evidence suggests multiple people may have been involved with killing the moose.
Anyone with information about the incident is encouraged to call IDFG Senior Conservation Officer Tony Imthurn at (208) 716-8099 or call the Citizens Against Poaching hotline 1-800-632-5999. Callers can remain anonymous and may be eligible for a reward. (IDFG)
