Hunters Fined


Three southern Ontario residents will pay $2,750 in fines for their part in the illegal shooting of a moose last October.

The three had stopped on Highway 11, west of Kashabowie, to shoot a moose that was standing in the ditch on the opposite side of the road.

They later tried to lie to Ministry of Natural Resources Conservation officers about where it was shot.

Physical evidence from the animal helped the MNR determine the true location.
