FAIRBANKS, Alaska - A 47-year-old Michigan man has been fined $25,000
and put on five years probation for hunting violations in Alaska.
Kent Milo Kaiser, a resident of Niles, Mich., was sentenced in
federal court in Fairbanks for his conviction of interstate
transportation of unlawfully taken or possessed wildlife.
He's also prohibited from hunting anywhere in the United States for
five years.
According to court records, the Michigan man claimed Alaska residency
in order to obtain Alaska resident hunting licenses and resident big
game tags in 2001, 2003 and 2004.
Using these tags, officials say he participated in the taking of a
grizzly bear on the North Slope, three deer on Kodiak Island and a moose
and transporting the trophies out of state.
