Missouri Department of Conservation finds group overhunting squirrels (ky3.com)

That is a lot of squirrels.

I would still have a problem if they took their legal limits of 320 squirrels. Way too much pressure.

I hope they get a stiff penalty.  Really sad.

Not likely to get much more than a hand slap. Game fines really are weak even for big game animals that are poached.  For squirrels I doubt the group gets anything more than $800 to $1000 in fines. Hopefully we can get a follow up.

Gotta call BS on THAT ONE.   Gross and blatant gigging of freshly stocked Trout, and several Smallmouth was reported between NRO and Barclay on the Niangua.....and after 4 days had past not a single MDC person even showed up to go look at them.

Each agent in assigned counties that is posted on the MDC website with the contact number.  You can get in touch direct and bypass the 800 game theft number.   That will get you more results faster.

Tried to book a cabin on 11 pt for a weekend coming up, all were rented by squirrel hunting group.  Wonder if same bunch will invade Oregon Cty?

What just doesn't look right about that pile of squirrels ?  

 

What do ya suppose those dudes are up to?   🤔 

I'm not buying the anonymous hotline tip...... There's more to the story there.   

Could it be a Wapsi conspiracy ? 😂
