Poachers shot a cow moose in a field near the town of Ontario and the Oregon Hunters Association is offering a reward of $2,000 for information that leads to an arrest or citation in this case
Eugene, OR – State officials said that the reporting parties may remain anonymous and can opt for five hunter preference points in lieu of the cash.
OSP F&W Troopers received a call from the public reporting a cow moose that had been shot and left to waste in an agricultural field located off East Island Road in the Beulah Wildlife Management Unit.
The location is about one mile east of the city or Ontario, near the Idaho border.
The moose may have crossed into Oregon from Idaho, where they are well established, however there is a small local population, according to Tucker Freeman, District Wildlife Biologist based in Ontario.
Moose historically are not native to the state and there is no legal hunting season for the largest of the Cervidae family, which includes elk and deer.
