Melting snow has revealed several moose carcasses near Postill Lake Road that has concerned one 91大黄鸭 man.

Sean Heddle was in the area with his mother when he found the remains.

Not only was he disgusted to see the moose heads missing horns, he was upset to see them near a popular road, as it would attract predators.

鈥淪uch irresponsible people,鈥� says Sean Heddle. 鈥淣ot to mention this will attract bears for sure, it stunk.鈥�

Conservation Officer Josh Lockwood says this is not a fresh kill.

Officers were first alerted to this animal dump early in the winter before it was covered in snow.

鈥淲e received some complaints of animal parts deposited in the Postill Lake area,鈥� explained Lockwood.

鈥淥fficers attended and determined it was a lawful kill. Someone had taken the parts and put them out in an area to be disposed of by natural predators.鈥�

Lockwood says this move is entirely legal, but Conservation Officers would prefer hunters choose somewhere further from the public to dispose of the carcasses.

鈥淭his was not a good location,鈥� says Lockwood. 鈥淲e would much prefer that responsible hunters take their remains to a spot where it is not going to be located, if they are going to feed it back to nature.

鈥淣ot so close to a road, not so close to residents because it does track predators and we want to avoid that at all costs.鈥�

Lockwood says when placed appropriately the carcasses do have a place in nature.

鈥淚t feeds small critters and others that will feed on it, but we prefer it is in a location not visible to the public.鈥�
