Game wardens are investigating a pair of cases involving game animals shot and left to waste in early October, 2024.

On Oct. 4, wardens responded to a report of an elk that was killed and left to waste on private property off the upper Thompson River Road. The head was removed from the elk and the rest was left.

Anyone with possible information is asked to visit tipmont.mt.gov or call the local game warden at 406-250-9498 to provide details.

In another local incident, wardens are seeking information on a cow moose that was shot and left to waste on Clark-Hinchwood (USFS 1027) road outside Plains sometime between Sept. 27 and Oct. 4.

Anyone with possible information is asked to visit tipmont.mt.gov or call the local game warden at 406-240-2271.

Callers may be eligible for a cash reward of up to $1,000.
