Talking among ourselves is not going to educate those outside our =

to publish the story because they didn't think that there was any =
interest. Not only is this a proven way of communicating with those who =

According to Larry Oaks, who wrote the article for the Star Trib:

"only one of them - the worst violator - stands to lose hunting =
privileges. One of the game wardens told me they wanted that sanction =
for all four, but it wasn't an option under the citation route, and the =
U.S. Attorney didn't want to formally prosecute the lesser three by =
complaint."
