I thought that this story might be of interest to those following the Swan
shootings. I think that this person probably got off without punishment
considering that his sentence included other criminal mischief. This person
was not even a hunter. He was just out being evil. If I remember correctly
he claimed that he thought that there birds were just ducks. Of course he
did not have a hunting license or duck stamp either. I think at some point
we have to educate these people not to break the laws concerning our
endangered species.
