Idaho Fish and Game bust ‘network’ of poachers who illegally killed 35 animals
Seventeen men were convicted of poaching crimes in Idaho and two more are at large after a two-year investigation into a “network” of people illegally killing dozens of animals.
Idaho Department of Fish and Game conservation officers led the investigation after discovering a group of hunters they suspected of illegally taking game animals in the Magic Valley Region in October 2023, according to a news release from the agency. Officers surveilled the group and determined they were hunting mule deer without tags near the small town of Rogerson, which is south of Twin Falls about 20 miles from the Idaho-Nevada border.
