I have been in trouble for poaching 2 times this year. And I did every thing I could to try not to. This duck season in Oklahoma was one.I had learned to identify all the ducks in the central fly way over the years and bought all appropriate licenses and stamps and shells, then after opening day a game warden came over on a routine check and found a hen pentail I had shot and fined me 150 dollars for it. when he asked me if i knew what it was i responded, a hen gadwall, he could barrely tell while it was in his hand, how hard does that make it to tell when its in the air! I was certain it was a hen gadwall even when he told me, however it was infact a hen pentail and it was out of season. It is impossible to stay legal. These sort of regulations make me not want to even hunt, or if i do do it under the radar and not under the law. The real poachers are just making it worse for every one else!
I added the cleanup tag; the article needs better formatting, grammar, etc. I'm on another mission at the moment; if it doesn't attract a fixer, I'll try to get back to it. Thanks. Catbar (Brian Rock) 02:08, 24 February 2006 (UTC) poaching is not cool and we should try our best to stop it
[edit] poltical correctness and paoching
Why is it not mentioned that Asian poaching of endangered species such as tiger to mkake medicine and their buying of african product such as rhino to make medicine is great threat to these species? Also that paoching in Africa has decimated rhino and elephant and continues to do so: snaring and shooting is rife and ongo0ing - also that politiciains use paoching to finance mechinations and wars??

[edit] Page needs work
As of 9/4/2007, this page is woefully inadequate. It doesn't do enough to mention poaching as a global problem. It will only become more prevalent in years to come as overpopulation of humans and habitat loss results in a direct conflict with the interests of wild animals. Clearly, wild animals will only continue to be harvested for their valuable parts and extinction will continue to be rampant. —Preceding unsigned comment added by James.Grubic (talk • contribs) 19:10, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
