Bullies, your thoughts?

"Baddest man on the planet. With the horns and about 150 pounds of meat on my back for about 500 feet, living the dream -- this is what I live for,"

"A whitetail deer was found in the possession of the taxidermist and was not tagged, and as a result of that, an investigation ensued,"

He's been charged with: (according to a Medicine Hat Provincial Court official).

• failing to tag a deer after killing it
• allowing edible mule deer flesh to be wasted or abandoned
• illegal possession of a deer

Mule or White Tail? Sometimes they do interbreed.

What's a decent weight for a dressed Mule Deer?

150lbs is respectable for a White Tail. Just wondering about the "allowing edible mule deer flesh to be wasted or abandoned" charge.

Violating game laws is bad enough. Doing so in another country is beyond stupid.

I hope he pays every penny and does every day in jail

Why's that?

My thoughts:

• Go Canada
• Lesnar you stupid redneck
• baddest man hah! Not really, it's not like you went for the quadruple leg takedown into a RNC FTW. Guns vs Antlers...terrifying.
• what a shitty guide it seems
• Medicine Hat is a great name "Occupy Medicine Hat" - they don't need to, cos it's in Canada, damn you great liberal north!!!

Why's that?

because hunting an animal and abandoning it it reprehensible, and also he's a total ass-hat and i don't like him. he's probably done lots of things to deserve a stint in the slammer so this may be karma catching up with him.

Ex UFC HW Champ Brock Lesnar has been charged in Medicine Hat, Alberta for violating the Alberta Wildlife Act during a hunting/fishing trip in 2010. Alberta Sustainable Resource Development spokesman Darcy Whiteside told the Calgary Herald"
He's been charged with: (according to a Medicine Hat Provincial Court official).

• failing to tag a deer after killing it
• allowing edible mule deer flesh to be wasted or abandoned
• illegal possession of a deer

As an American, Lesnar required a guide, to hunt in Alberta. The guide, Chad Stryker, has also been charged.

The maximum penalty for each charge is a $50,000 fine, and one year in prison.

Lesnar didn't attend the hearing at Medicine Hat provincial court Thursday. Stryker and Lesnar are due to appear Jan 19th.

In a video of the hunt (shot by North American Hunter Television), Lesnar says this at the end:
Bullies, your thoughts?

That's a Whitetail Deer in the photo, not a mulie. Maybe he shot both?

Absolutely, and that's probably not even the strangest one.
