Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks game wardens are seeking any information regarding two deer that were shot after the general season in eastern Blaine County.
Wardens received a report of a deer left to waste on private property along New Hope Road in eastern Blaine County, about six miles west of Harlem. After investigating, wardens found the wasted deer that was reported, and in addition, found more blood and drag marks nearby, indicating that a second deer was shot and removed from the property.
The deer were shot with a firearm, and likely killed between the evening of Dec. 3 or early on Dec. 4, several days after the general deer season closed on Dec. 1.
Anyone with possible information about this incident is asked to visit tipmont.mt.gov to provide details, or call Warden Haden Hussey directly at 406-942-2191. Those who report information may be eligible for a cash reward of up to $1,000.
