A passing motorist saw a person cut off the head of a vehicle-killed white-tailed buck, place the head in the trunk of his car, and drive off.
The passing motorist was pretty sure some aspects of this action may have been illegal and reported the deed to the local Wisconsin DNR game wardens, Mallory Knoble and Mike Burns, who were working the area near Hwy. 133 between Boscobel and Muscoda that day, Oct. 22, 2024.
