A poacher was caught near Kilmez with a moose carcass and a gun in the car.
According to the Ministry of Environmental Protection of the Kirov Region, the poacher was detained on September 26 in the hunting grounds of LLC "Kristall", 14 km from the settlement of Kilmez. During the raid a state hunting inspector stopped a UAZ vehicle in which they found the dressed carcass of an adult male moose. The driver did not have any documents authorizing the hunt. An unregistered smoothbore shotgun and cartridges were also found during a search of the vehicle. All items found — the meat, the weapon and the vehicle — were seized by police who arrived at the scene. During operational actions they identified the offender and the place where the moose had been shot. He turned out to be a 40-year-old resident of the Kilmezsky District, who fully admitted his guilt. A criminal case has been opened against him under Article 258 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation ("Illegal hunting"). According to the ministry, the man voluntarily paid 240,000 rubles in compensation for damage to wildlife. The investigation continues.
