Here is a picture from one of our hunters game cameras. It shows a poacher pulling out a buck he killed on our property. The game wardens have been notified and are investigating. The poacher came from the north fence line toward the east side of the property. There are only a couple of landowners that join the property there. Birch Creek Ranch is offering a $2000 reward over and above any State of Texas rewards for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the poacher. Please contact Operation Game Thief at 800-792-GAME with information, it can be done anonymously. Please share, any help is appreciated. ![](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/usergals/2017/11/full-39708-125190-poacher.jpg) Here is a pic of the buck alive. The do not shoot is from the lease holder to his guys. Who knew it should have been made public...

In the end, it's not the years in your life that count, it's the life in your years.

Links work. Click the second link once inside. Seems like an inside job.

My buddy lives in Leon County where we hunt and I will forward the picture to him. Maybe he can identify him. We had a couple of poachers come through his land and one made a frame to actually process the deer and hogs he was killing. The game warden put a camera up and got him. I hate poachers!!!!

Great, appreciate the help. It's just not how I was raised, guess not everyone can say that. We have a couple of good game wardens in the county and know the sheriff well. They know who the bad guys are I am sure, just got to go to the usual suspects.
