Agree fully. Seems like a little common sense wasn't used in both parties.

The State probably needs to look at this incident and re-define what and where is legal to shoot an animal there.

If everyone and their dog can (and apparently did) witness this incident from 101, it wasn't the smartest place to kill a big animal, legal or not.

Wonder how many tree huggers from Seattle called in the "poaching" incident that they were watching right in front of their eyes??? Many, I'm guessing.
