We need your help! AZGFD is seeking information about the poaching of a mule deer buck in Game Management Unit 1 near Nutrioso in the White Mountains on the afternoon of Nov. 10. The buck was shot out of season with a r***e near Milligan Valley, a few miles west of Nutrioso. The head and backstraps were taken, and everything else was left to waste. A forest green Toyota 4-Runner was seen leaving the scene of the poached mule deer buck.

AZGFD’s Operation Game Thief program encourages anyone with information about these cases or the illegal take of wildlife in Arizona to call its 24/7 hotline at (800) 352-0700 or visit www.azgfd.gov/ogt. Callers should reference case number 24-003177 for any information regarding this case. Callers may be eligible for a reward of $500 for information leading to an arrest in this case.
