HUNTING — On March 20, I devoted my weekly Outdoors column to the
case of Oregon hunter Bob Beck, a TV hunting show host, who pleaded
guilty to shooting two deer in Idaho even though he had only one
non-resident tag.
The case was made a year after the
2010 hunt when a sportsman gave Idaho Fish and Game a tip after
seeing the hunt and the killing of both deer on Beck's Extreme Outer
Limits program, which aired on the Sportsman Channel.
Beck did not own up to the illegal kill until he was confronted
by authorities. The guilty plea was entered and the fines were
assessed in February 2012.
