😲US Government Wants Hunters to Shoot 500,000 Owls

[JenniferG]

The last thing any hunter I've ever known is going to do is shoot at an owl and risk being arrested for shooting a protected species. Even if they tell you it's OK to shoot Barred owls and you make a mistake in the identification and it turns out it's a Spotted owl which is apparently pretty easy to do they won't accept the excuse you thought it was the Barred owl and you'll be fined thousands of dollars, they'll take your gun, lock you up and you'll lose your hunting license for many years if not permanently. That's how those douche's roll.

It's a trap.

A grand jury indicted two men on charges of going on a years-long "killing spree" of federally protected eagles and selling "this country's national symbol" on the black market, court documents revealed.

Simon Paul and Travis John Branson were each charged last week with one count of alleged conspiracy and 13 counts of violating the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act.

Federal prosecutors said they have messages from Branson stating that he was "committing felonies" and "telling buyers he was 'on a killing spree' to obtain eagle tail feathers for future sales."

Branson would travel from Washington state to the Flathead Indian Reservation in Montana to meet up with Paul who'd "help kill, transport and ship bald and golden eagles for future sales on the black market," according to the indictment.

Paul "was a 'shooter' and 'shipper' of bald and golden eagles" for his co-defendant, the indictment showed.
