Colorado Parks and Wildlife officers are looking for clues in a poaching incident that happened yesterday.
Fishermen at DeWeese Reservoir near Westcliffe reported hearing shots around 11 a.m. Wildlife officer Justin Krall responded and found where a deer had been field dressed a few feet off County Road 241 in the DeWeese State Wildlife Area.
Krall hopes someone may have heard or seen something that may shed light on the incident. There is a $500 reward if a tip results in a citation.
Anyone with information can call Krall at 719-371-2240, contact Operation Game Thief at 877-265-6648, or e-mail tips to game.thief@state.co.us.
