Wisconsin Hunter is Gored By a Buck, Rescued by Helicopter, Then Slapped with a Fine

Talk about a bad hunt. Richard C. Harris was injured, lost, and hospitalized in January. Now, it has come out that he gut busted for poaching, too.

...

The fatally wounded buck had bedded several times before Harris encountered the deer and approached it head-on from a close distance. McCormick felt the buck had not attacked Harris, as was originally reported, so much as the hunter was simply standing in the way of the whitetail’s attempted escape path. McCormick found the buck dead only a short distance from the site of the encounter.

Too bad they didn't nail him, and Hopefully his insurance didn't cover the chopper ride.

I read that story in the Outdoor news. Didn't it used to be legal to hunt over bait in Cheeseland?
