Klickman,

I have a serious question. I'm not denying that the picture is anything than what you described, but what is it proof of that we all don't already know?  We know tribal members can harvest multiple animals in most cases.  We know it is human nature for hunters to brag about their success.  We know hunters load elk up whole in the back of their trucks from time to time.   So, what argument does this picture go along with?  I'm not saying there isn't one.  I just want to know what it is.

yak i'm sure animals get left by both partys and claim that no groups perfict , just what I saw recentlly and the matter is being delt with allready . thanks for the concern .

This is what I like to see Choachcw proof now I hope they bust them so we know who the culprits are you should have called me I would have tried to get her if I could so she didn't go to waist.

I just looked at the pic of the bulls in the back of that truck did they have tags on them?

Wow what a shame. Nice shot placement though...

So I have a question. I have heard for years that washington state game wardens have no jurisdiction on tribal members. Is this true? I always figured it wasn't, but have also heard stories where there was witnesses and evidence but the game warden couldn't do anything about it. Just like the story about the bull killed on private property near enumclaw at night but Bruce couldn't do anything about it.

They can't doo much.  The tribal guys that I caught with 2 big bulls did not have tags but were issued tags after the fact by the tribe.  The gamies told me there was nothing that they could do.

[Yak-NDN]

TO my understanding  if they see someone breaking the law they are to either detain them until Tribal Game  shows up or take all their info and they can send them a Ticket and or discuss it with the Tribal Game Dep.

So, isn't this what needs fixing? I understand if it happens on a reservation but if its off the reservation seems like it would be within the jurisdiction of a local game warden? Basically these guys know they can't be touched it seems like.

Do we have any Law enforcement on the site that knows for sure I have been stopped by Fish and Game many times I have never had any problem. I try not to break and laws.

Ok I'll admit it's been awhile since I've been to the CHC and yes I love their popcorn.  The last movie I seen there was Hangover 2 and I love the sunday brunch although it's been a few months since I've had it.  Again, Yak don't judge me based off the little bit of knowledge you have of me, I haven't presumed to know anything or proclaim anything about you so if you can't show the same courtesy then don't expect any back from me.  As I've stated before I was born and raised here graduated school here (not the Tribal School) and only left when I was in the Marines but came back and still work for the Tribe.  Just because I chose to live off it at the time to be closer to work doesn't mean it gives you free will to banter and slander.  I'm not going to get into a pissing match to see who's more Native, that's a little childish in my opinion.

Since you were not active when I started here you might have missed the fact that I mentioned my prior Law Enforcement experience is over 5 years and majority with the Tribe.  While in the Ceded Areas ALL TRIBAL MEMBERS must have IDENTIFICATION.  The Yakama Nation has exclusive jurisdiction over Yakama Members and Tribal Law SUPERCEDES State Law.

They can stop and detain for Tribal Police if they believe a crime has been committed.  I, for one have never had a bad experience with State Game Officers or any Wildlife Officials other than them checking for any violations.  One might have been a little upset because he didn't find nothing one time and wasn't happy that I had the correct answers to his questions about fishing in a certain area but left and still said a courtesy remark as he was leaving.

It's my understanding that both the state and the tribe will deal with this the tribe takes offencese seriouslly aswell . I was very reluctant to post a pic but its what I saw . If I catch A piece of white trash doing the same thing i'd do my best to have justice served . I'm bowing out know and hope thaty we all can be a part of a cure not the cause .

look like tags to me.

[igotbigbulls]

oh and i hope the issue with the wasted animal coach posted gets taken care of. no need for that at all.

[Ddog73]

I know the truck with the bulls they got in trouble and I know the guys who left the ewe are getting in trouble too.

[igotbigbulls]

hey ddog why they get in trouble for the bulls if they had tags? is that not a tag on the one you can see the best?

[Ddog73]

They were all tagged but one of the guys didnt go the right route and get the tag re issued in his name before hunting with the tag it was issued in another guys name.
