It's important to maintain a healthy relationship with local wildlife in order to create a strong ecosystem, but those who don't adhere to this belief will rightfully suffer consequences.
WISN 12 News reported in October that Jessica Kroening of Brownsville, Wisconsin, is facing charges stemming from what investigators described as "a large-scale deer-poaching scheme" that killed more than 100 deer within a 200-square-mile radius between the spring of 2023 and this past July.
The 36-year-old is being charged with contributing to the delinquency of a child, illegal deer shining, and resisting a conservation warden, per NBC 26. The crimes occurred across parts of Fond du Lac, Washington, and Dodge counties.


According to the complaint, Kroening admitted to investigators that she accompanied a 16-year-old male one night and shined a light while he shot at deer out of a car window. Investigators say the teen and two other male juveniles took part in the killings, sometimes taking the heads of some bucks and other times leaving them to rot. Prosecutors said Kroening supplied the juveniles with her vehicle and firearms.
The group would allegedly sometimes hit deer with their car and take selfies or videos while the deer was still suffering, according to investigators. Prosecutors said Kroening admitted to destroying one of the minor's phones after learning law enforcement obtained a search warrant for it.
She consented to a search of her vehicle, and law enforcement uncovered a bloody steak knife, a bloody wooden saw, a spotlight, three bloody floormats, a .22-caliber bullet, and two bloody pocket knives. She also turned over two firearms the teens had used to authorities, both of which had the serial numbers scratched off.

This incident is another example of the challenges of wildlife conservation. In Uganda's Murchison Falls National Park, rangers have been working tirelessly to remove traps and snares to protect wildlife and combat poaching.


With the right support and education, individuals can help protect our planet's precious ecosystems, such as the former poachers in Indonesia who have turned into conservationists and now work alongside scientists to restore coral reefs.
Kroening is scheduled for an initial court appearance on Dec. 2.

You should see the traffic from Nodackers coming east into Mn during the summer. Mind blowing.
One person's eff_ up does not reflect the whole.

OK, I guess...

Feel free to rat them out on here if they don't behave themselves according to the local laws. I dislike North Dakotans that do this shit as well.

Anyone leaving this state to go to the blue state to fish is doing so because of ease, and proximity. No way I would head over to the lakes area in MN to fish for any reason other than that.

No better walleye fishing, boat ramp access, and quality of fellow fisherman than right here in ND. However the Cass county folks have a decision to make, drive 45 minutes to fish the blue state, or a few hours to hit the river, or DL, or Sakakawea. Don't blame the logistics at all, as adding 4-8 hours to a fishing trip isn't always doable.

But when they get to the blue lakes, I hope they are respectful, and only pissing of the boat when necessary.

The rumor is they were culling the herd due to CWD and took the heads for testing.

It'd be interesting to know the percentage of ND residents cited for DNR violations within MN vs. say MN/WI residents cited for G&F violations in ND? Take into account that ND regs are pretty doggone straightforward vs. the Bible sized proclamation one needs for MN/WI.....

I see an awful lot of MN/WI plates on the MT wardens show, ND, not so much, like never.

Never see the DNR, Sheriff thats a whole nuther ball game. WE fest weekend no less two officers patrolling our little less than 500 acre lake. Plus Becker Co - now has a 22 footer with a 250hp on her - addition to the fleet. I try figure out most of these lake people have pontoons --- they cruise slow around, yeah jet skiis i am actually seeing less of those. Luv the MT wardens show. Devils lake the home of the sota's and sconis. Any rig that is at the ramp early in the morning at DL- guaranteed a Sota/Scon.
