BOISE — The Idaho Department of Fish and Game is searching for two suspects in a potential chukar poaching case.
On Friday, the agency released photos of the suspects, which shows the two suspects at the Boise River Wildlife Management Area on March 18. In the photos, one suspect is carrying a shotgun and a cleaned chukar hanging from his belt, 46 days after chukar season closed.
Fish and Game also said that this was during the timeframe when the Boise River Wildlife Management Area was closed to all public entry to protect wintering big game animals.
Based on the photos, Fish and Game said both suspects may be wildlife firefighters, and one suspect might be currently or previously serving in the military.
If you have any information regarding this potential chukar poaching case, please call Fish and Game's Southwest Regional Office at 208-465-8465.
