Speaker 1: animal attacks here in just a moment, and we do
4:01
Speaker 1: every week. Threw out a couple of things. First of all,
4:10
Speaker 1: in case you missed it, the Astros lost today. I'm
4:15
Speaker 1: just you know, I'm just telling you in case you
4:17
Speaker 1: missed it, six nothing Toronto. So the Seattle Mariners, with
4:22
Speaker 1: a win tonight against the woeful Angels, will tie the
4:26
Speaker 1: Astros for first place in the AL West, and the
4:31
Speaker 1: Rangers will be two games back. Okay, the Rangers have
4:34
Speaker 1: not been within two games since April. Okay, thank you
4:41
Speaker 1: Houston for bringing everybody back into the fold. Now, the
4:46
Speaker 1: Astros will host the Rangers and the Mariners back to
4:51
Speaker 1: back starting Monday in Houston. Okay, so Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday
5:00
Speaker 1: off day on next Thursday a week from today, and
5:04
Speaker 1: then Seattle, Man, those are gonna that's I'm gonna say,
5:10
Speaker 1: that's gonna go a long way toward determining the AL West.
5:16
Speaker 1: And if there's anybody from the West that's going to
5:20
Speaker 1: you know, be a wildcard team because there's other teams
5:25
Speaker 1: knocking at the door. I mean the Cleveland Guardians I
5:28
Speaker 1: think are right there. Kansas City had dropped off just
5:31
Speaker 1: a little bit, but who am I'm missing? Those two
5:36
Speaker 1: are really with Seattle and Texas. Those those four teams
5:40
Speaker 1: right are are fighting for two spots.
5:44
Speaker 6: Because the division.
5:48
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, I'm counting the division.
5:56
Speaker 6: Yeah. So it's.
6:00
Speaker 1: We're in the stretch run right now. It's a great
6:03
Speaker 1: time of year. I mentioned this earlier. This was in
6:08
Speaker 1: addition to the I guess three players. Yesterday, the NCAA
6:13
Speaker 1: talked about gambling. Now there are thirteen basketball players from
6:18
Speaker 1: six schools that are also under investigation. The violations include
6:24
Speaker 1: betting four and against their own teams. And I don't
6:30
Speaker 1: think we have talked about this now for a couple
6:33
Speaker 1: of years. I don't think anybody's going to be shocked
6:35
Speaker 1: by this. There's going to be more. Gambling is all
6:41
Speaker 1: done on your iPhone now and it's easy, and college
6:48
Speaker 1: kids are doing a lot of it. I don't think
6:51
Speaker 1: it's particularly healthy, but we're going to see a lot
6:57
Speaker 1: more of this, There's no doubt about that. A lot more.
7:02
Speaker 1: We've got football tonight. It is North Carolina State Wake
7:09
Speaker 1: Forest acc football, and then Tomorrow night Big twelve Football
7:15
Speaker 1: Colorado is visiting Houston. Then Big twelve Football doubleheader on Fox.
7:25
Speaker 1: Kansas State is visiting Arizona. Then I don't know what
7:33
Speaker 1: kind of football you'd call this New Mexico and UCLA.
7:37
Speaker 6: I would just call it bad football. So you got
7:44
Speaker 6: that going on for you.
7:48
Speaker 1: Let's see if there's anything else we need to talk about.
7:53
Speaker 6: Nah, I don't care about that. Yeah, that's enough. Let's
7:57
Speaker 6: do this. I did that workshop, Let's do this.
8:03
Speaker 1: A Florida optometrist was mauled by an eight foot alligator
8:10
Speaker 1: that clamped onto her arm in a tug war that
8:14
Speaker 1: saw her husband pulling on one side and the alligator
8:19
Speaker 1: on the other. Amber Parent twenty seven praised her husband's
8:26
Speaker 1: heroics and plans to mount the scaly predator's skull in
8:33
Speaker 1: her office after surviving. This is a woman I need
8:37
Speaker 1: to get to know.
8:39
Speaker 6: Okay.
8:40
Speaker 1: She survived an alligator attack that shattered her forearm left
8:46
Speaker 1: her hand dangling while boating on the Saint Lucy River.
8:53
Speaker 1: This is in Florida, of course, with her husband Kelby,
8:56
Speaker 1: and their dog Poncho.
9:00
Speaker 6: Parents stepped into.
9:02
Speaker 1: The water to wet her hair when she was grabbed
9:05
Speaker 1: by the gaiter and yanked under the surface. She said,
9:14
Speaker 1: I saw the gator's head eye to eye. My mind
9:18
Speaker 1: was to get away. I started punching his head. I
9:22
Speaker 1: was trying to rud Kelby heard the screams. Jumped in
9:27
Speaker 1: the water, hauled her up, but the alligator was attached
9:32
Speaker 1: to her right head. There was a tug of war.
9:37
Speaker 1: I pulled her back, the gater pulled back. I pulled
9:40
Speaker 1: her again. She came loose.
9:44
Speaker 6: He said.
9:44
Speaker 1: The gator's head was about two feet long, the full
9:49
Speaker 1: body eight feet. After being freed, he raised his wife
9:55
Speaker 1: to the boat to the dock. First responders treated her
10:00
Speaker 1: injuries and she was airlifted to a Fort Pierce trauma center.
10:05
Speaker 1: The gator got my arm, she said. It broke both
10:08
Speaker 1: bones in my forearm. It severed the radial artery. My
10:13
Speaker 1: hand was hanging. I kept saying, He's my hero. He
10:18
Speaker 1: saved me. She has undergone five surgeries, multiple skin grafts.
10:28
Speaker 1: She can wiggle her fingers, but her hand remains largely numb.
10:34
Speaker 1: She will face additional surgeries. She recovering through occupational therapy,
10:41
Speaker 1: adjusting to running her new eye clinic with her left hand,
10:46
Speaker 1: but she says it won't keep me from the water.
10:51
Speaker 1: If it showed us anything, it showed us how quickly
10:54
Speaker 1: your life can change in the matter of seconds. Look, people,
11:02
Speaker 1: you don't go in the water anywhere in Florida, Okay,
11:07
Speaker 1: because there's gators everywhere. I've said this before. There are
11:12
Speaker 1: gators in our area. There are gators in lakes or
11:17
Speaker 1: ponds in our area.
11:18
Speaker 6: It's not.
11:21
Speaker 1: I wouldn't call it common, but it happens you go
11:28
Speaker 1: east of here. Yeah, but this lady is putting the
11:34
Speaker 1: gators and they don't say how they killed the gator
11:36
Speaker 1: or who killed the gator, but she's putting this gator
11:40
Speaker 1: skull in her office. I love that. Get them before
11:45
Speaker 1: they get you. See that didn't happen in this case.
11:49
Speaker 1: Get them before they get you. Our animalist tax segment
11:57
Speaker 1: is brought to you each week by Shultzofing, Home of
12:01
Speaker 1: the Bulletproof Roof Guarantee. It was after a hailstorm a
12:06
Speaker 1: few years back.
12:07
Speaker 7: I needed a new roof. Yeah, I shopped around and
12:09
Speaker 7: then I found Shorlty Roofing, and boy, I'm glad I did.
12:12
Speaker 7: The folks at Shulty guided me every step of the way.
12:15
Speaker 7: They showed me my options. They told me what my
12:17
Speaker 7: out of pocket cost would.
12:18
Speaker 8: Be after insurance.
12:20
Speaker 7: They took the complication out of an otherwise very stressful situation.
12:23
Speaker 7: They took off the damage roof, put on the new roof,
12:26
Speaker 7: did all the cleanup, and I had my new roof
12:28
Speaker 7: in one day.
12:31
Speaker 2: The home by the bullet roof.
12:36
Speaker 1: The mother of a twelve year old boy who was
12:39
Speaker 1: attacked and killed by an alligator after slipping out of
12:43
Speaker 1: his home in New Orleans has been charged with negligent homicide.
12:48
Speaker 1: Hilda Vasquez, thirty four, was arrested this past Sunday, almost
12:52
Speaker 1: a month after her non verbal son Brian, went missing,
12:59
Speaker 1: and nearly two two weeks after his body was pulled
13:02
Speaker 1: from a lagoon close to his home, where they had
13:06
Speaker 1: moved just two weeks earlier. The mom listened to me,
13:12
Speaker 1: if you think, well, that's harsh. She was previously convicted
13:17
Speaker 1: of abusing her son when he was a toddler. She
13:23
Speaker 1: was also charged with second degree cruelty to juveniles. Both
13:28
Speaker 1: counts carry up to ten years in prison. Now listen
13:33
Speaker 1: to me. She had left her son home alone with
13:40
Speaker 1: an eleven year old sister the day he climbed out
13:45
Speaker 1: of a window, which was not secured, despite the fact
13:48
Speaker 1: he had escaped twice before and arrest, Warrant said as
13:55
Speaker 1: proof of the mom's failure to protect and check on Brian,
14:01
Speaker 1: she failed to take appropriate steps to secure her residence
14:06
Speaker 1: despite her knowledge of special needs and a history of
14:10
Speaker 1: his leaving the residence. Look if she was abusing him,
14:16
Speaker 1: I know why he was trying to get out of
14:18
Speaker 1: that house. While the boy's family blamed his escapes on
14:23
Speaker 1: him being autistic and nonverbal, his disability was actually caused
14:29
Speaker 1: by a traumatic brain injury from his mom's abuse when
14:35
Speaker 1: he was three months old. Deputy Superintendent Nicholas Jernan told
14:42
Speaker 1: reporters in New Orleans, There's been a pattern of both
14:46
Speaker 1: negligence and abuse over Brian's twelve years. We believe we
14:52
Speaker 1: can prove that that pattern of negligence and abuse led
14:56
Speaker 1: to undue pain and suffering. It climbed out of a
15:01
Speaker 1: window at five am on August fourteenth, was last seen
15:05
Speaker 1: less than an hour later on security footage, wandering outside
15:11
Speaker 1: in a diaper. The boy's remains were located by members
15:17
Speaker 1: of the United Cajun Navy, a volunteer search and rescue group.
15:21
Speaker 1: By the way they showed up during the Hill Country floods.
15:25
Speaker 1: In July, officials determined the boy drowned after suffering blunt
15:31
Speaker 1: forced trauma during an alligator attack. He suffered a skull fracturer,
15:39
Speaker 1: broken legs, collapse lung. The mother claimed she did not
15:44
Speaker 1: know how the boy was injured. This when he was
15:47
Speaker 1: a child, but was convicted for cruelty in twenty thirteen.
15:51
Speaker 1: Authorities removed him from the home, but at some point
15:57
Speaker 1: the Losiada Department of Children and Family Services were turned
16:00
Speaker 1: him to his mother. Police have launched an internal investigation
16:06
Speaker 1: into a five hour delay, and we talked about this
16:10
Speaker 1: when it happened in their initial response to a nine
16:13
Speaker 1: to one one call that he was missing. Police have
16:18
Speaker 1: also requested the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries exterminate
16:24
Speaker 1: nuisance alligators from the lagoon and bring in hunters to
16:30
Speaker 1: control the population.
16:33
Speaker 6: You think.
16:38
Speaker 1: That is a sickening story. I will say again, they're
16:44
Speaker 1: too many alligators. There're too many in Florida, there are
16:48
Speaker 1: too many in Louisiana. They're too many in Texas. We
16:54
Speaker 1: have seasons, we need to expand those seasons. We need
16:58
Speaker 1: to take more gators. Look, I know people that have
17:03
Speaker 1: private lakes and private ponds and you're never going to
17:07
Speaker 1: know they had an alligator. And frankly, that's the way
17:10
Speaker 1: it should be. I am not advocating by the way
17:15
Speaker 1: breaking laws, but if you own property and you have
17:19
Speaker 1: an alligator swimming around in your pond or lake, honestly,
17:25
Speaker 1: by the time you call authorities or people to get dispatch,
17:30
Speaker 1: the alligator maybe gone. So do what nature intended and
17:38
Speaker 1: take them out. This is in Thailand, Safari World in Bangkok,
17:47
Speaker 1: and we have got some extra special gnarly stuff. Today
17:51
Speaker 1: a zookeeper was eaten alive by lions in front of
17:56
Speaker 1: horrified tourists who watched as they chewed him up.
18:00
Speaker 6: Veteran zookeeper.
18:03
Speaker 1: Jeanne Brown, age fifty nine, was attacked early yesterday when
18:11
Speaker 1: he stepped out of his jeep to clear trash off
18:14
Speaker 1: the floor of the animal's open enclosure. Panic visitors screamed
18:21
Speaker 1: as they helplessly watched the lions pin him down and
18:25
Speaker 1: tear him apart. A professor a doctor at a leading
18:31
Speaker 1: hospital who witnessed the attack said the first lion was
18:34
Speaker 1: about thirty feet away, slowly approached and grabbed the zoo
18:39
Speaker 1: keeper from behind, dragging him to the ground and biting him,
18:43
Speaker 1: and then three or four other lions joined it. Fellow
18:50
Speaker 1: zookeepers who couldn't get close blared their car horns in
18:55
Speaker 1: a feudal attack. By the time the staff was able
18:59
Speaker 1: to get their guns, it was too late. Hospital staff
19:05
Speaker 1: said he had suffered multiple injuries. The park was shut
19:09
Speaker 1: down as park officials considered euthanizing the attacking lions. So
19:16
Speaker 1: here's what's gonna happen. Here's what's always gonna happen. These
19:20
Speaker 1: lions killed a man. Okay, they killed a man who
19:24
Speaker 1: took care of them. So the lion huggers are going
19:27
Speaker 1: to say, well, these lions never should have been in,
19:30
Speaker 1: you know, in an enclosed area to begin with, it's
19:35
Speaker 1: the man's fault. It's all his fault. And then they're
19:39
Speaker 1: going to put up a fight, going, hey, you can't
19:44
Speaker 1: kill these lions. Well you can, they should. I don't
19:52
Speaker 1: know how that's going to work out. But and then
19:59
Speaker 1: there's this we've talked before. Besides water buffaloes, hippopotami are
20:07
Speaker 1: probably the most dangerous animal in the world. A rogue
20:13
Speaker 1: hippopotamus capt sized a boat packed with passengers on the
20:20
Speaker 1: Ivory Coast leaving eleven people, including children and a baby missing.
20:28
Speaker 1: The boat carried fourteen passengers was traveling along the Cassandra
20:34
Speaker 1: River in the southwest town of woo Yo when it
20:38
Speaker 1: was overturned by the hippo. You just think it was
20:44
Speaker 1: an accident. Oh no, it was no accident. It is
20:54
Speaker 1: with deep sorrow we learned that eleven people, including women,
20:57
Speaker 1: girls in an infant, have gone missing following the capsized boat.
21:02
Speaker 1: The ages of the passengers are not known. Only three
21:07
Speaker 1: have been confirmed to have survived. Search and rescue operations
21:16
Speaker 1: are still underway. Distressed by this tragedy, the government joins
21:23
Speaker 1: the pain of the parents and relatives of the deceased
21:26
Speaker 1: and expresses its solidarity. The massive mammals are the most
21:33
Speaker 1: listened to me are the most common cause of animal
21:38
Speaker 1: attacks causing death or injuries in the country. Roughly five
21:46
Speaker 1: hundred hippos along the Ivory Coast and inhabiting southern rivers.
21:58
Speaker 1: Different estimates for the number of people killed each year
22:04
Speaker 1: begin around five hundred. Do you know that that's like
22:16
Speaker 1: two hundred and times more than sharks. I'm guessing there,
22:23
Speaker 1: I'm not guessing. I mean, I've looked at this before,
22:26
Speaker 1: but on the average, probably two to six or eight
22:32
Speaker 1: people and maybe not even that many some years are
22:35
Speaker 1: killed by sharks. Here in the Ivory Coast, five hundred
22:39
Speaker 1: people are getting killed by hippos, the second largest land
22:45
Speaker 1: mammals after elephants, can weigh up to seven thousand pounds.
22:53
Speaker 1: That's three and a half tons for those of you
22:55
Speaker 1: who are mathematically challenged. They can be eleven feet long
22:59
Speaker 1: and five foot tall. A couple of years ago, a
23:04
Speaker 1: child died and over twenty villagers went missing after a
23:09
Speaker 1: hippopotamus capsized that boat in Mallowy. You do not want
23:16
Speaker 1: to mess with these things. I'm just telling you. Fortunately
23:22
Speaker 1: we don't have those around here. But they have a
23:29
Speaker 1: nasty disposition. They have to have a nasty disposition. They're
23:34
Speaker 1: killing five hundred people. I'm going to read this again.
23:39
Speaker 1: That doesn't sound right. Different estimates for the number of
23:44
Speaker 1: people killed each year begin around five hundred. Now this
23:52
Speaker 1: is worldwide, and I probably don't know where all. Would
23:56
Speaker 1: you look up where hippopotamus's range are, Where all the
24:00
Speaker 1: countries that they're in. So we know they're along the
24:04
Speaker 1: Ivory Coast, but I don't know what the range of
24:09
Speaker 1: a hippopotamus is but if they're killing five hundred people
24:17
Speaker 1: a year, that's Southern Africa, right, all through Southern Africa.
24:22
Speaker 1: Is that the only that's the only place. I mean
24:25
Speaker 1: when I say all through, I mean more than half.
24:28
Speaker 6: Right, that's about.
24:29
Speaker 1: Two thirds of the continent of Africa where we see hippos. Yeah, yeah,
24:37
Speaker 1: three thousand people annually, three thousand.
24:40
Speaker 4: According to the African Wildlife Foundation.
24:44
Speaker 1: Three thousand people killed every year, that's what it says.
24:48
Speaker 1: My gosh, Look, I don't know anything about what's going
24:54
Speaker 1: on in Africa, but if I knew that there were
24:58
Speaker 1: three thousand people a year being killed by hippos, I.
25:02
Speaker 6: Would stay away from them.
25:06
Speaker 1: I mean, I know the rivers there are life. I
25:08
Speaker 1: mean with water, they eat, they you know, they sustain things.
25:13
Speaker 1: But I mean when you have a seven thousand pound
25:18
Speaker 1: animal that swims and can walk on the bottom of
25:22
Speaker 1: the river underwater, I know you've seen video of that happening.
25:27
Speaker 1: Right when they surface, bad things happen. These things are
25:34
Speaker 1: they're not good. It's not not good. Get them before
25:42
Speaker 1: they get you. And in this case, getting a hippopotamus,
25:48
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to have a real large gun. In
25:52
Speaker 1: South America, there are hippos in South America. Okay, ah, yes,
26:00
Speaker 1: we had that. Pablo Escobar imported right to Colombia a
26:06
Speaker 1: menagerie of African animals. He had four hippos on his
26:11
Speaker 1: place right and there were he had let's see, there
26:14
Speaker 1: was there was another beastly animal that they had to
26:18
Speaker 1: round up because of that that was attacking people. Just
26:26
Speaker 1: in Bill O'rehleigh's new book Confronting Evil, which we talked
26:30
Speaker 1: to him about yesterday, he talks about the drug cartels.
26:34
Speaker 1: There's just one more, you know, kind of thing on
26:39
Speaker 1: the periphery. He brought in wild animals that could kill people,
26:45
Speaker 1: and I don't doubt he fed He fed wild animals
26:48
Speaker 1: with people, you know, I don't doubt that at all.
26:52
Speaker 1: Three thousand people. I mean, that's the biggest killer, right,
26:58
Speaker 1: wildlife killer in the world. It's gotta be. I know
27:02
Speaker 1: in Australia they have things that sting you and bite
27:04
Speaker 1: you and poison you. But that has got to be.
27:07
Speaker 1: There can't be any other animal that kills three thousand
27:11
Speaker 1: people a year, no way. I mean, I know that
27:17
Speaker 1: there's disease from you know, like mosquitoes and things in Africa.
27:21
Speaker 1: I'm not saying it's under control. But they they do
27:25
Speaker 1: have a better handle on that.
27:26
Speaker 6: They used to. What do you think, Caleb, you're not
27:29
Speaker 6: counting snakes? Can how many? How many people do snakes
27:35
Speaker 6: kill every year?
27:38
Speaker 9: We're gonna go with.
27:38
Speaker 6: Somewhere between fifteen one hundred there's a range of.
27:41
Speaker 1: Numbers, fifteen one hundred people, fifteen one hundred thousand people worldwide.
27:47
Speaker 1: Another reason. I was just talking to a friend today
27:49
Speaker 1: about that snakes. You know, if you listen to me,
27:56
Speaker 1: I don't like snakes. There's no such good thing is
28:00
Speaker 1: a good snake.
28:01
Speaker 6: I know, I know.
28:02
Speaker 1: Oh they you know they eat rats. I don't care.
28:05
Speaker 1: I'd rather have bison rats. I don't want snakes. I'll
28:10
Speaker 1: kill every snake I see. You can't prove that. I
28:15
Speaker 1: don't have pictures. I'm just telling you I don't like them.
28:19
Speaker 1: But yeah, they're killers. Get them before they get you.
28:26
Speaker 1: I've been telling you about Loco Ranch for a while.

Speaker 6: They build lakes. This is what they do.
29:21
Speaker 1: Lakes and ponds. They manage them, they stock them. You know,
29:27
Speaker 1: you have a pond that's money.
29:29
Speaker 6: Why is it money?
29:30
Speaker 1: You have a pond that has too much vegetation. They're
29:33

Speaker 1: know about teams or I don't know about teams Georgia
35:43
Speaker 1: Tennessee and Clemson and Georgia Tech and Vanderbilt and South Carolina.
35:52
Speaker 1: You know, there's just some things that I'm not sure about.
35:57
Speaker 1: But maybe it'll bring we'll bring things into a little
36:01
Speaker 1: better focus. Okay, right now, I'm going to play a
36:07
Speaker 1: podcast for Chester Moore, which we do from time to time,
36:10
Speaker 1: the outdoor writer from Southeast Texas. This one is on poaching.
36:16
Speaker 1: And as I mentioned earlier, it's dove season, it's about
36:20
Speaker 1: to be deer season. It's very timely. I hope that
36:25
Speaker 1: nobody in this audience needs a warning about that. But
36:29
Speaker 1: there's some interesting stories.
36:33
Speaker 17: Poaching is the illegal take of wildlife. It is the
36:36
Speaker 17: antithesis of legal and ethical hunting and fishing.
36:41
Speaker 8: Times.
36:42
Speaker 17: It crosses a line that jumps over into dark outdoors territory.
36:47
Speaker 17: And we have three stories for you that are mind
36:51
Speaker 17: boggling and show the depraved nature of people when it
36:56
Speaker 17: comes to some of these issues. And we're going to
36:58
Speaker 17: start with a case in New York. This extremely shocking
37:02
Speaker 17: that involved a man dressing as a woman to find
37:07
Speaker 17: access to deer living in city parks where he and
37:12
Speaker 17: his network of poachers could go in and kill them.
37:16
Speaker 17: I was across Andy, came across a shocking poaching situation
37:20
Speaker 17: that law enforcement officials made a case on in New
37:24
Speaker 17: York and it is absolutely incredible and not in a
37:29
Speaker 17: good way. The good part of it is the great
37:32
Speaker 17: work of the law enforcement officials of the New York
37:35
Speaker 17: Department of Environmental Conservation and joining us on the program,
37:39
Speaker 17: I have Captain Joshua Verhague and we're going to talk
37:42
Speaker 17: about this shocking case. How did wildlife officials first become
37:47
Speaker 17: aware of this scheme of what was going on?
37:50
Speaker 18: So in the area, we have a couple of wildlife
37:53
Speaker 18: photographers that were recording through their lenses the deer in
38:01
Speaker 18: the area. And in this part of New York State,
38:04
Speaker 18: the area is closed completely for safety reasons to hunting.
38:08
Speaker 8: And with that, as.
38:10
Speaker 18: Majority of your listeners probably know, if there's no hunting,
38:15
Speaker 18: deer have the opportunity to grow big and abundant. So
38:19
Speaker 18: even though it is in a suburban setting, there's still
38:23
Speaker 18: enough small patches of woods that the deer have the
38:25
Speaker 18: opportunity to reach some max potentials. So through that these
38:34
Speaker 18: photographers were noticing some other people come into.
38:38
Speaker 8: The area.
38:40
Speaker 18: As well as as time has progressed and more and
38:44
Speaker 18: more with shed hunting, and people become aware of shed
38:47
Speaker 18: hunting online social media groups, through the wildlife photographers and
38:52
Speaker 18: the shed hunting social media groups.
38:55
Speaker 8: Really we're putting it out.
38:56
Speaker 18: There that hey, look what I found, Look what I'm seeing,
38:59
Speaker 18: and so between in those two areas, the individual started
39:03
Speaker 18: noticing gut piles as well as another suspicious activity and
39:09
Speaker 18: that was reported to us.
39:11
Speaker 17: All right, so there was, you know, in the press
39:15
Speaker 17: release mentioned this this online part of this. So these
39:20
Speaker 17: people were kind of infiltrating online groups of photographers and
39:24
Speaker 17: maybe shed hunters to get intel.
39:26
Speaker 18: Basically, yeah, correct, specifically they were part of a shed
39:35
Speaker 18: hunting social media group. One of the individuals took it
39:40
Speaker 18: to the next step to really analyze the size of
39:44
Speaker 18: bucks by creating a fake wildlife photographer social media account
39:53
Speaker 18: to get into.
39:54
Speaker 8: That group and really see what was out there.
40:00
Speaker 18: And so the reconnaissance was being done from a remote
40:03
Speaker 18: setting and what more of a better avenue than wildlie
40:07
Speaker 18: photographers taking pictures of one hundred and sixty one hundred
40:11
Speaker 18: and eighty inch deer and you could sit at wherever
40:15
Speaker 18: they were looking at the size of these deer.
40:18
Speaker 8: It had been going on for a while.
40:22
Speaker 18: Unfortunately, with statute of limitations after the fact, we were
40:26
Speaker 18: limited on the enforcement. We did have other violations going
40:31
Speaker 18: beyond the statute, but that's just how the law works,
40:34
Speaker 18: and that's okay. We need to work within the confines
40:37
Speaker 18: of the law and that's fine. So we had estimated
40:40
Speaker 18: that it was going on for about five years, going
40:43
Speaker 18: back to about twenty.
40:45
Speaker 8: Eighteen twenty eighteen.
40:47
Speaker 17: Now, was it only in this particular area or did
40:51
Speaker 17: you get the idea that this might be going on
40:54
Speaker 17: in other areas as well?
40:57
Speaker 18: Other areas through evidence found under search warrants, through social
41:03
Speaker 18: media accounts, through cell phone accounts, and then physical search warrants,
41:09
Speaker 18: we found evidence in other parts of New York State,
41:13
Speaker 18: even as close to the confines in New York City. Yes,
41:16
Speaker 18: there's deer in New York City, as well as other
41:20
Speaker 18: states along the Eastern seaboard, and we did reach out
41:23
Speaker 18: to those states for the evidence that we observed. They
41:27
Speaker 18: did conduct and investigations, but were unable to make a
41:32
Speaker 18: case off of those. So you have the.
41:34
Speaker 17: Individuals that were mentioned in the news release and the
41:37
Speaker 17: one that was posing as a female wildlife photographer. So
41:42
Speaker 17: is this something that looks like it had tentacles other
41:44
Speaker 17: places and maybe had been more elaborate.
41:47
Speaker 18: Yes, it was completely targeted Hochre.
41:52
Speaker 8: They knew the deer they wanted and the group.
41:56
Speaker 18: In my nineteen years, this was the most sophisticated, sophisticated
42:02
Speaker 18: organization of poaching. You know, I have seen groups of friends,
42:07
Speaker 18: family members get together and hey, let's go jack a deer,
42:10
Speaker 18: and they were a night or a season. What's interesting
42:14
Speaker 18: about this case is the use of social media, which
42:16
Speaker 18: we have seen before, but how the use of the
42:20
Speaker 18: wildlife photographers and the shed hunting groups to specifically target bucks,
42:26
Speaker 18: to use their accounts as well as text messaging threads
42:32
Speaker 18: and specifically target a buck. Hey, this weekend, we're going
42:35
Speaker 18: to go shoot this and whatever the name of the
42:38
Speaker 18: deer was, This one hundred and sixty inch deer, This
42:40
Speaker 18: one hundred and eighty inch buck. I'm not going to
42:43
Speaker 18: settle for this one hundred and forty inch buck in
42:45
Speaker 18: the area. I wow, this one the most sophistic organized
42:49
Speaker 18: I should say, for targeting specific deer.
42:54
Speaker 8: It's not just hey, we're going to go put some
42:56
Speaker 8: meat in the freezer.
42:58
Speaker 18: Is we're going to go shoot this month's buck on
43:00
Speaker 18: this day because we know it's in this area because
43:03
Speaker 18: of this wildlife photographer, because of this social media account
43:07
Speaker 18: puts it there two days ago, and so I know,
43:10
Speaker 18: even in the middle of the rock, this deer is
43:11
Speaker 18: relatively close here.
43:12
Speaker 8: We're going to find it, We're going to shoot it.
43:15
Speaker 12: Wow.
43:16
Speaker 17: Was there any evidence they used like geo tags they
43:18
Speaker 17: could find in photos?
43:20
Speaker 18: No, we of course, the technology allows different avenues to
43:25
Speaker 18: detect that.
43:26
Speaker 8: I don't recall any.
43:28
Speaker 18: Avenues where they were utilizing it. They through their shed hunting,
43:34
Speaker 18: which is the off season, through their shred hunting opportunities
43:38
Speaker 18: in the area, they generally knew the patches of woods
43:41
Speaker 18: that these deer were in, so unforeseen on this case
43:47
Speaker 18: with that technology use.
43:50
Speaker 17: Now, in terms of this social media aspect of this,
43:53
Speaker 17: was this mainly being done through like Facebook groups where
43:56
Speaker 17: their Snapchat involved because I've heard of a poaching case
43:59
Speaker 17: and I believe it was a that had some Snapchat
44:01
Speaker 17: elements in it.
44:02
Speaker 8: Yes, yeah, yeah, both were being used. The regular textmester
44:10
Speaker 8: thread being used.
44:11
Speaker 18: And just to mention another part of the case which
44:14
Speaker 18: makes it interesting, this is plain day plane, middle of
44:18
Speaker 18: the day on a weekend, plain clothes, maybe a little
44:22
Speaker 18: bit of camel. But their approach was to pose as hikers,
44:29
Speaker 18: wildlife photographers, normal people just out enjoying.
44:33
Speaker 8: A nice fall afternoon.
44:35
Speaker 18: They're not dressed in full camo hiding in the bush
44:38
Speaker 18: and trying to get away with it middle of the day,
44:42
Speaker 18: and again suburban setting, so using all avenues possible, we
44:47
Speaker 18: did see some potential for hiding smaller bows, compact bows.
44:55
Speaker 8: Yeah.
44:55
Speaker 17: That was my next question about getting archery equipment in there.
44:58
Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, and that was something I've never seen before.
45:01
Speaker 18: As technology increases, you know, manufacturers are taking bows and hunting.
45:07
Speaker 8: Equipment to the next levels.
45:09
Speaker 18: It's outstanding because we're you know, certainly you want the
45:11
Speaker 18: most efficient, clean kills of the animal.
45:16
Speaker 8: But with that also comes some other complications.
45:18
Speaker 18: They were able to fit a bow into a backpack
45:22
Speaker 18: and if you were looking at them, you would never
45:24
Speaker 18: think that that person had.
45:26
Speaker 8: A bow in their backpack.
45:28
Speaker 18: They also, which I've never seen before, had walking sticks,
45:32
Speaker 18: and they would hide the arrows within the walking sticks,
45:37
Speaker 18: again to give them that additional of just being join it.
45:41
Speaker 18: So any individual and probably even law enforcement would not
45:45
Speaker 18: think that they were up to poaching activities.
45:49
Speaker 17: Yeah, I didn't have the ear marks and you know,
45:50
Speaker 17: a lot of times you think of, you know, some
45:52
Speaker 17: guy poaching area like that, coming out at night with
45:54
Speaker 17: a twenty two magnum or something and you know, with
45:56
Speaker 17: a little headlight. Yeah whatever, And that's kind of in
46:00
Speaker 17: East Texas here what happens most of the time. But
46:03
Speaker 17: these guys obviously had, you know, a game plan. And
46:06
Speaker 17: I'm a bow hunter myself, and when I first heard
46:09
Speaker 17: archery equipment involved, I thought it might have been some
46:11
Speaker 17: of these really tiny crossbows. But when I noticed it
46:15
Speaker 17: mentioned compact bows, I went and checked out an archery shop.
46:19
Speaker 17: At the smallest bows they had, I'm like, you know,
46:21
Speaker 17: you could fit that in a backpack, you know. So
46:24
Speaker 17: that was an interesting aspect of this. Now in terms
46:27
Speaker 17: of the individuals and maybe some of the other things
46:29
Speaker 17: you looked at, did you get any sense that this
46:32
Speaker 17: might have been part of the reason they did it
46:35
Speaker 17: was the thrill of going in and doing this and
46:38
Speaker 17: particularly targeting certain bucks, or was there any kind of
46:41
Speaker 17: like we're going to sell the racks off of these
46:43
Speaker 17: or anything like that.
46:44
Speaker 18: Nothing revealed the sale of the racks during the physical
46:49
Speaker 18: search warrants of the subject's residents. This was not the
46:54
Speaker 18: first time they had shot a I wouldn't say world class,
46:59
Speaker 18: but a very nice, mature deer that majority of public
47:03
Speaker 18: would not see in their hunting lifetime. I think a
47:09
Speaker 18: lot of it was for self motivation, self gain, ego
47:12
Speaker 18: driven type things to say that we shot some big bucks.
47:16
Speaker 18: Nothing was shown for sale or purchase in the investigation,
47:22
Speaker 18: and we dug pretty deep.
47:25
Speaker 17: It's a very interesting case. And you mentioned you like
47:27
Speaker 17: getting search wards and going in. There was a particular
47:29
Speaker 17: deer in the press release at our read where it
47:32
Speaker 17: ran into someone's backyard.
47:34
Speaker 8: Again going back, yes and no.
47:37
Speaker 18: So being in a suburban setting, majority of the areas
47:41
Speaker 18: that they're hunting are surrounded by residential or apartment complex
47:45
Speaker 18: and so on.
47:47
Speaker 8: So the one individual was observed.
47:49
Speaker 18: Walking what would have been behind the one of the
47:53
Speaker 18: complainant's house in the backyard, but it was owned by
47:57
Speaker 18: another entity. The deer after it was shocked because we
48:02
Speaker 18: put the time piece together wobbling, as the complainant had
48:06
Speaker 18: told us, in what was on the patch of woods,
48:10
Speaker 18: but not in physically owned by the complainant, but would
48:14
Speaker 18: be what you would consider like, hey, that's my backyard,
48:16
Speaker 18: Like what are you doing? Yes, the individual and the
48:21
Speaker 18: dying deer as it was mortally wounded and eventually deceased
48:26
Speaker 18: not too far from where the complainants sought. It would
48:29
Speaker 18: have been in the person's backyard.
48:32
Speaker 17: It's a very interesting case. And the reason I want
48:34
Speaker 17: to do this is just a sort of raise awareness
48:37
Speaker 17: to how far poachers will go and how maybe they
48:41
Speaker 17: can use modern technology to do things. And people who
48:44
Speaker 17: maybe you know have private herds of animals or property,
48:47
Speaker 17: or you know, have animals and urban settings suburban settings
48:50
Speaker 17: around their homes. So how did this make you look
48:54
Speaker 17: as a department more at the social media aspect of
48:58
Speaker 17: how people can you know, scout out poaching opportunities.
49:03
Speaker 18: Absolutely, this level of a fake account something that we
49:10
Speaker 18: need to and when I say we, it's not just
49:13
Speaker 18: New York State, but the natural resource law enforcement across
49:16
Speaker 18: the country need to look at the organization level of
49:21
Speaker 18: it because it's there and it's present.
49:24
Speaker 17: What should the public in terms of posting photos of
49:27
Speaker 17: wildlife is there? Should we be concerned about, you know,
49:31
Speaker 17: giving two specific information of locations of wildlife and things
49:35
Speaker 17: like that to be photographed.
49:36
Speaker 8: That's a tough question.
49:38
Speaker 18: You know, if the public is out there taking photo listen,
49:41
Speaker 18: who doesn't love seeing if you love the other love
49:45
Speaker 18: seeing seeing pictures, you love seeing different wildlife that are
49:50
Speaker 18: native to your state, or whatever the scenario be. What
49:55
Speaker 18: I think that would be the pitch to the public
49:58
Speaker 18: is the obscure scenario that just doesn't make sense into
50:03
Speaker 18: this area and you're the wildlife photographer and you've never
50:05
Speaker 18: seen somebody hiking of this nature for you know, the
50:10
Speaker 18: last ten years you've been in there or whatever it is.
50:14
Speaker 18: See something, say something that you know Post nine to
50:16
Speaker 18: eleven is a common thing, even in the wildlife tract.
50:20
Speaker 18: If it's uncommon, please call your local agency and specific
50:24
Speaker 18: to New York. You know, we get complaints all the time.
50:28
Speaker 18: We get hey, I saw this, and we love it.
50:30
Speaker 18: If it's at the local dining or coffee shop, gas station.
50:34
Speaker 18: Communication is the only way because you know, majority of
50:38
Speaker 18: your natural resource law enforcement, your game boarder is out there.
50:41
Speaker 18: We're green for a reason to hide, but believe it
50:44
Speaker 18: or not, where we are not out there twenty four
50:47
Speaker 18: to seven And we do need the public's help, and
50:50
Speaker 18: we appreciate it the public's help, and hopefully it's a
50:54
Speaker 18: give back to those people that are doing it the
50:57
Speaker 18: right way.
50:57
Speaker 17: I think the mind is our greatest defense tool. And
51:02
Speaker 17: whether you have a deer lease, a duck lease, own
51:05
Speaker 17: some land somewhere, or maybe just live near a park
51:08
Speaker 17: where some crazy person is, you know, out there doing
51:11
Speaker 17: some illegal wildlife activities. Don't confront them. Leave that for
51:17
Speaker 17: the officials. I remember back in an old deer lease
51:20
Speaker 17: of mind having to basically hold my dad back from
51:23
Speaker 17: trying to confront someone down poaching on a creek bottom
51:27
Speaker 17: area and not you can see the lights down there,
51:29
Speaker 17: and look if people are willing to sneak into a
51:34
Speaker 17: public park with a crossbow or a gun to poach
51:37
Speaker 17: deer like in this case, or they're willing to go
51:41
Speaker 17: in a place like Texas it's big on private property
51:43
Speaker 17: rights and go in cross property boundaries, posted signs, fences
51:49
Speaker 17: kill wildlife illegally. They might be willing to shoot you.
51:53
Speaker 17: So something simple you can do, and it also helps
51:56
Speaker 17: wildlife greatly if you know about poaching cases. Is turned
51:59
Speaker 17: into operation game thief, Operation game thief. Actually you can
52:04
Speaker 17: get a reward do it anonymously for turning in poachers.
52:08
Speaker 17: So it's like a bonus called one eight hundred seven
52:11
Speaker 17: nine to two game. That's one hundred and seven nine
52:15
Speaker 17: to two gam and leave confronting poachers to the professional.

Speaker 20: Merril Kelly took the mound for Texas and didn't get
54:06
Speaker 20: a great first inning as he gave up solo homers
54:08
Speaker 20: to Bryce Terrang and Jackson Schorio, giving the Brewers a
54:12
Speaker 20: two to nothing lead in the first. It wouldn't take
54:14
Speaker 20: long for Texas to respond, as Jake Berger sent another
54:17
Speaker 20: bomb to left field in the bottom second, this one
54:20
Speaker 20: for four hundred and thirty two feet, which cut the
54:22
Speaker 20: lead in half. The Rangers would go on to take
54:24
Speaker 20: the lead in the third with a bases loaded fielder's
54:27
Speaker 20: choice play along with a bock with Runners at the
54:29
Speaker 20: corners to take a three to two lead. Then in
54:31
Speaker 20: the bottom of the fifth, Jake Berger struck again with
54:34
Speaker 20: a two run long ball, his sixteenth of the year,
54:36
Speaker 20: making the score five to two. The Brewers would score
54:39
Speaker 20: one more with an RBI single from Rhee Hoskins in
54:42
Speaker 20: the sixth, but the Rangers would pull away again with
54:44
Speaker 20: an RBI ground out from Rowdy to Les for a
54:47
Speaker 20: final score of six to three. Texas with your Texas
