Yardley didn’t know how many complaints came into the Terrace conservation officer office, But he said the Rosswood area has. been one of this year’s poachiig complaint hot spots, ,

Though illegal hunting activity in the area has slowed in the past few weeks, Yardley said the problem is still ongoing and a message should be sent to poachers.

“It's illegal to hunt at night and in close proximity to the highway,”’ he said.

Yardley stressed that poaching is not only dangerous but, if caught, those convicted face significant fines.
