The Iowa Department of Natural Resources is seeking information as it investigates two deer shot out of season at the Hawkeye Wildlife Area along the Iowa River upstream from Coralville Lake.
The DNR says the deer were found a short distance from each other and were shot through the eye, which is indicative of illegal spotlighting methods. It is believed that the deer were killed on or around the evening of Friday, June 21st.
Anyone with any information about this incident should text or call Conservation Officer Erika Billerbeck at (319) 330-9710 or email erika.billerbeck@dnr.iowa.gov. Callers may remain anonymous and can also provide information through Iowa’s Turn In Poachers program at 1-800-532-2020. Persons who provide information to TIPs leading to a conviction are eligible for substantial cash rewards.
