Bull Elk Wasted in South Phillips County

Wardens Seek Information

Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks Game Wardens are seeking information on a wasted bull elk, likely shot early in the week of Oct. 25, in southern Phillips County.

On Nov. 1, Warden Todd Tryan said a caller reported seeing a dead 6X6 bull elk that had been field dressed and left. The elk was located near the upper end of Plum Coulee Trail on private property in hunting district 622.

Anyone with information about the crime is encouraged to call Warden Todd Tryan at 406-263-0067, Warden Ben Morin at 406-654-7630, or FWP's 24-hour wildlife tip line at 1-800-TIP-MONT (1-800-847-6668).

The 1-800-TIP-MONT program is a toll-free number where one can report violations of fish, wildlife or park regulations. Callers can remain anonymous and may be eligible for a reward up to $1,000 for providing information that leads to a conviction.
