IMO, poachers should permanently lose all hunting & fishing rights for life, nation-wide, regardless where they commit their crime(s). Plus, serve a lengthy public service sentence, as well as hefty fines and lose all property used in commission of the crime(s).

Agreed.

Rifle/optics that you used? Forfeited.
Binos/rangfinder/clothing? Forfeited.
Used your truck to bring it home? Forfeited.
Processed it in your property/home? Forfeited.
 
he doesn't even have a hunting license? yet he did this and thought he'd get away with it?

hopefully he never gets to obtain a license period.

maybe take away his right to own ANY type of firearm as well...???

this kinda reminds me of those fishing contests, where a few times, the winner is found to have added weights to the fish.
 
White trash. Called the Sheriff last year on a “turkey hunter” shooting (and wounding) a turkey while shooting from a pickup on MY posted property. Turned out to be a neighbor’s 17 yr old. Dunno what all the Sheriff’s office did, but his DAD did his best to make it a “teaching moment” and I doubt that boy’ll EVER do that crap again😊

Well, together we now can offer up our 4¢ ... I couldn't agree with you anymore. Many years ago I was a 'Hunter Safety Instructor' for our state's game and fish commission. One of our classroom sessions was in regards to poachers and one thing that would really set me off was when/if someone called them 'hunters'. I resented the hell out of any poacher ever being considered a 'hunter'!
 
And the dumb sheit Christopher “CJ” Alexander in the picture above is smiling like he's really accomplished something special. Yeh, he's got a fine specimen there, but he (and his friends) ain't nothing special. He's about as worthless a human being as there is. I'm going to stop here, but you see what I mean about being "set off"! Sorry for the rant!

i find him (and others that poach) to be as bad as so-called hunters that go into the woods, and shoot an animal and don't make a clean kill, and make the animal suffer with either a missing jaw, or eye, or other debilitating injuries, making THAT animal ripe for a pack of coyotes, or a bear, or other predator for an easier kill.

I've been in the woods enough to know that occasionally a mistake or some unforeseen incident will happen that an animal will be wounded and lost temporarily. On rare occasion, I'll even accept that some animals just simply cannot be found no matter the effort. But a real hunter, sportsman, or any conscientious human being will make 'every effort' to find it and finish it. There will also be those times when they simply cannot be found. But in every case, every effort must be made to find that animal.

I can honestly and proudly say that in all my years of hunting, I'll conservatively say 65 years, I've never lost any animal I've wounded except maybe a few quail and/or doves. Never any mammal, and there have been a time or two when it's taken all night, but eventually the animal was found.

I have a true story about being in the woods late at night once looking for a deer when I was surprised by a game warden wanting to know what was going on. Once he understood what I was trying to do, he jumped in to help. We finally found the deer, got it back to camp, dressed an in the cooler, then had breakfast together. That was probably 40+ years ago and even though we're both long retired and he has moved to another state, we still keep in contact.

It wasn't me . But a friend and co worker witnessed this :

Scene - Large State Forest, very popular with Hunters . Deer Firearms season. At this point , dispersed camping was still allowed , and popular during hunting season.

Cold weather , some snow on ground .

Erstwhile Hunter looks out the window of Motorhome , sees 8 pt buck , standing there within Pistol Rznge .

He grabs his trusty .357. Magnum, steps out , Bang , and 8 point is down .


Standing nearby was a ( don't recall if it was Natural Resource PD , or a LE Forest Ranger , but doesn't matter ) .

He's Busted . Why ?

It was in Season
It was during Legal Hunting Hours
The campsite was the required distance away from the Forestry Road.
All of his hunting party consented to hunting taking place within their campsite .
6 inch. 357 Mag was legal for hunting Deer .

I suppose he probably didn't throw on Blaze Orange over his pajamas , that would have been a $25 – ish citation.

The problem was , he stepped onto the fold out step, instead of the ground in his bare feet .

His $70 K ( in 1980's dollars ĺ
Was confiscated.
 
Well , bare feet in snow wouldn't be anyone's instant Plan A .

But with everything else Legal, nothing unsportsmanlike, no intent to do anything else inappropriate, with just a modicum of Ofc Discretion, a $500 fine and Hunting Privledge Suspension would have made big impression, and substantial deterence .
 
Another prime example of what I hate the phrase "Law Enforcment Officer". They become 1st and foremost enforcers of the law not police, wardens, conservation officers, etc. that are there to protect and serve.
Some years ago, a co-worker built a Goose blind out of left over corn stocks from an a Jasion field. A "LEO" sited him took his license, threatened to take his gun because some of the stocks still had ears of corn on them. "Baiting geese". He had to fight it in court but, and won, but by the time ti was all said and done his season was over.
