As long as people believe they can get away with crime, our friends at Georgia’s Department of Natural Resources’ Law Enforcement Division will be kept busy.

The latest Law Enforcement Report gives us a glimpse into what folks thought they could get away with … until they met DNR Rangers.

This week’s perps include:

  • Harvesting ginseng plants out of season – Rabun County
  • Holding a game animal without a permit – Forsyth County
  • Boating violation citations – several counties
  • Hunting out of season, illegal possession of wildlife – Fannin County
  • Stolen boat recovered, returned to owner – Dougherty County
  • Boating violation citations – several counties

The Wildlife Resource Division protects Georgia’s wildlife by enforcing laws, rules and regulations pertaining to:

  • game and nongame animals
  • threatened and endangered plants and animals
  • exotic animals
  • boating safety
  • litter and waste control
  • and other natural resource issues.

We appreciate DNR’s efforts to keep the wild outdoors as tame as possible.
