Four indicted over alleged poaching of giant buck from Clinton County, Ohio

A 28-year-old Wilmington, Ohio, man was indicted by a grand jury May 10 for his alleged role in the poaching of an 18-point buck last November.
Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost, on behalf of the Ohio DNR, announced the indictment of Christopher J. Alexander and others allegedly involved in the case.
“Blinded by greed, the defendants set their sights on fame and fortune while disregarding basic hunting regulations,” Yost said in a statement released by his office.
The indictment, returned by a Clinton County grand jury, accuses Alexander of unlawfully harvesting the deer on Nov. 9, 2023.

Randy Newberg is awarded RMEF’s highest honor

The Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation (RMEF) presented public lands hunter and longtime RMEF advocate Randy Newberg with the Wallace Fennell Pate Award, its highest conservation honor.
“If you would have told me that I would ever be standing here, I would have never dreamed it,” said an emotional Newberg, after accepting the award at RMEF’s 40th anniversary celebration in Missoula, Mont. “I can’t think of an organization that has made a difference in my life, and my family and the things that mean the most to me in the America that I want to see than all of you that make up the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation.”

Conservation groups report progress on U.S. Farm Bill

While the odds that a fresh, new federal Farm Bill will have been established by the time an extension to the current bill expires this fall are debatable, conservation groups nonetheless expressed approval of recent progress made regarding the massive bill’s conservation title.
On May 2, Delta Waterfowl issued a press release reporting that “the legislative process toward delivering a new U.S. Farm Bill has taken important first steps …” The release came on the heels of announcements by two key members of U.S. House and Senate ag committees who’d put forward their Farm Bill proposals.
