FAIRLEE, Vt. (AP) — The Vermont Department of Fish and Wildlife
says wardens have broken up an unlicensed captive hunting facility
in Fairlee where people paid up to $6,000 to hunt exotic animals
such as buffalo, sika deer, and Texas dall sheep.
The state
on Friday charged 51-year-old Steven Hill and 21-year-old Chiaki
Ito, both of Fairlee, with operating the ‘‘Hunt the Ridge’’ captive
hunting facility. They are alleged to have charged visitors up to
$6,000 to hunt exotic wild animals.
