Over 40 ducks and geese wasted near Kuna
Idaho Department of Fish and Game officials are asking for your help is gathering information regarding two recent cases of wanton waste associated with the dumping of multiple Canada goose, mallard and goldeneye carcasses near Kuna Butte, southwest of Kuna.
On January 19, Fish and Game conservation officer Brian Flatter found nine Canada geese and two duck carcasses left to waste along Swan Falls Road south of Kuna.
On February 5, conservation officer Brian Jack responded to a second call and found 31 Canada goose carcasses dumped in the same area.
No meat from any of the birds had been taken, and Idaho code requires the breast meat be removed before disposing of a harvested waterfowl carcass.
Evidence was collected at the scene, but the officers would like to speak with anyone who might have information about the wanton waste case.
