Moose Illegally Killed

The Colorado Division of Parks and Wildlife is looking for a hunter who may have illegally killed a bull moose near Silverthorne on Oct. 22.  It happened along the Gore Range and Rock Creek/Pebble Creek Trail.  A couple of hikers say a hunter told them he had shot the moose by mistake, but so far, that person hasn't talked with wildlife officers.  Operation Game Thief offers a reward if a tip leads to a citation.
