?On the Facebook page of Washington's Department of Fish and Wildlife, most people seem to be firmly behind a Pierce County landowner who took a poaching matter into his own hands. Actually, he took the matter into his own tractor.


The landowner used his tractor to, as WDFW writes on Facebook "push the {poacher's} truck down an embankment." WDFW police were called to the area by the landowner's neighbor, who worried something worse may happen.


Officers removed the man from the tractor, removed a loaded .44 magnum from his waistband, and detained the man. The tractor man was the landowner and didn't want the poacher to get away.


The poacher turned out to be a 16-year-old neighbor and his grandfather. The 16-year-old had killed a closed season cow elk. The cow elk was recovered and the meat was donated to a local food bank. ?

Belongs in "Sound Off" and not the Fly Fishing forum unless you are going to argue that elk poaching is somehow related to fishing.
