Interesting case. I hope it goes in Herreman's favor, as it looks to me like he went out of his way to take the ethical path. I understand and support the reasoning behind making it illegal to use an aircraft to assist in hunting game, but to extend that to salvage seems like an overreach.
Alaska Dispatch News said:Moose kill near Homer by Fish and Game official brings charges
A state wildlife biologist who claims to have gone to extra lengths to find a moose he wounded while hunting near Homer is in trouble now.
The Homer News reports 33-year-old Jason Herreman, area wildlife supervisor for the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, has been charged with using illegal means to kill a moose and with unlawful possession of game. The charges stem from an Aug. 23 hunt and the Aug. 24 use of an aircraft.
