    How is this Possible?

    Honestly, please explain a factual scenario where this is possible?

    Aaron J. Long, 20, of Fairfield, Ill. was killed last Thursday night when his 16-year-old friend and hunting partner mistook Long for a wild turkey and shot him in the back with an arrow.

    Wayne County Sheriff Jim Hinkle said Long had been hunting near the Sam Dale Lake State Park with several friends Thursday evening. Long was pronounced dead at 7 p.m. when officers arrived on scene.

    “Mr. Long was sitting on a small ridge when his 16-year-old friend walked up on him and mistook him for a wild turkey,” Hinkle said. “He was struck in the upper back and died at the scene.”

    The accident is being investigated by the Illinois State Police, the Illinois Department of Natural Resources and Wayne County Coroner Jimmy Taylor.

    From here.

    Exactly what sequence of events could lead you to confuse a human adult male with a wild turkey at archery range? Horrible, for everyone involved, but such an incredible waste.

    Poachers Caught

    A Venetia, Penn. Man was recently found guilty of illegally killing elk in Colorado and transporting it to Pennsylvania.

    A Guernsey County, Ohio man plead guilty to three wildlife charges including; taking a deer during a closed season, possessing an untagged deer and hunting without a valid hunting license two weeks ago.

    Gregory A. Boley, 22, was sentenced yesterday for the illegal taking of a white-tailed buck according to the Ohio Department of Natural Resources Division of Wildlife.

    Wildlife officers began investigating Boley after receiving a tip that someone illegally shot a deer in the county on July 15. Inside Boley’s home, officers found a buck in full velvet that he had shot with a .270 rifle.

    The rest here.

    Two Wisconsin men face seven conservation charges of illegally shooting a 26-point buck during archery season.

    The deer is reportedly the largest trophy deer ever killed in Dodge County. Investigations began in January.

    Wayne Nisiewicz, 45, and Anthony Nisiewicz, 24, both of Horicon could face possible jail time, large fines and loss of hunting privileges according to DNR conservation warden Paul Nell.

    Anthony Nisiewicz was also charged with providing false deer registration information, and Wayne Nisiewicz was also charged with obstructing a conservation warden.

    The rest here.

    And they caught those two dirtballs that were shooting grebes, coots, and ducks with a .22lr from their truck. It caught the public eye after they proudly posted a video of themselves on youtube. Catch it here.
