OSP Looking For Information On Wasco County Poaching

Oregon State Police are asking for your help identifying those responsible for illegally taking an elk outside of Antelope, a small-town northeast of Madras.  Investigators say early in the morning of Saturday September 6th, a trail camera captures two unknown individuals taking a cow elk.  The two suspects were seen standing over the carcass of the elk.

OSP said the individuals entered the private property in a vehicle, gutted the elk, and left.  The suspect vehicle is believed to be a light-colored 2001–2004 Nissan Frontier with an older canopy and a roof rack.

Anyone with information leading to the identification and citation, or arrest, of these individuals could yield a reward of $1,000.  Submit tips to TIP@osp.oregon.gov, or contact OSP’s Northern Command Center at 800-442-0776 or by calling *OSP (*677) on a mobile device. Please reference Oregon State Police case number SP25-396292.
