Swiss wildlife officer convicted of poaching 131 animals

“The officer killed 87 roe deer, eight chamois, 26 hares, nine boar and an owl.  A fellow poacher illegally killed 12 roe deer, two hares and two boars, while another two hunters were sentenced earlier in the case.  The country’s top court ruled that federal law permits cantons and municipalities the right to see compensation for damages caused by poaching equivalent to the ‘value of the animal illegally killed’. When the case first went to trial in November 2009, the prosecutor described the four men as ‘an organized gang that brought the law into their own hands in the forests of Franches-Montagnes’ (a district in the canton of Jura).”
