Slaughter of Game in Northern Minnesota Sparks Law Debate

The article quotes A Gilfillan, a longtime Episcopal missionary, alleging extensive illegal killing of moose, caribou, and red deer across northern Minnesota and beyond the British line. It notes strict state limits on moose and caribou and a 20 day deer hunt with at most five collars per hunter, but claims slaughter continues year round, aided by Indian hunters near Cass Lake Winnibigoshisi and Leech Lake areas, with large numbers of deer and moose reported. It warns that big game may soon vanish east of the Rockies due to unregulated hunting and encroachment by British and Minnesota settlements, estimating around 600 bears killed annually in the region.
