Authorities Seeking Poacher Who Killed Trophy Buck on Reservation

Officials with the North Dakota Game and Fish Department and the Three Affiliated Tribes Fish and Wildlife Department are currently investigating the poaching of a large mule deer found dead on the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation last week.

The buck, which is speculated by some to be a contender for the state record, was believed to have been shot during the opening weekend of deer season. Since the deer was killed on reservation land, the case will be primarily handled by Three Affiliated Tribes Fish and Wildlife, although the state Game and Fish Department said it will be offering assistance and a $1,000 reward for information that leads to the poacher’s arrest.
