JULY 22 MEDIA RELEASE__During the 2024-25 white-tailed deer archery hunting season, State Wildlife Officer Ryan Burke, assigned to Hancock County, received a report of a buck found dead in a field with an arrow in it. The caller stated that the individual claiming to have shot the deer had already harvested a buck. Officer Burke determined that the suspect had harvested two bucks, exceeding the statewide bag limit of one antlered deer. The individual pleaded guilty to taking more than one antlered deer in Hardin County Municipal Court, paid $500 in restitution and $150 in fines, and forfeited hunting privileges for one year.
