Three men banned from hunting Moose for two years

Three men from the Nipissing Area have been charged for violating moose hunting regulations.

The Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry says two men from Redbridge have pleaded guilty to hunting a cow moose without a licence, transporting illegally killed wildlife and trespassing to hunt.

They have been banned from hunting moose for two years and were each fined $3,000.

Meantime, a Callander man is facing similar charges with a $2,000 fine. The MNRF says this stemmed from an incident last October, when the three men were hunting together on Rabbit Lake Road, south of Temagami.
