Most are. If they cant show and tell somebody it aint as fun.

Im sure there are wardens from every state on here but not sure what your point is?

It happens all time.
It doesn't bother me at all that they use FB to nab moronic poachers who post their kills on line.
I did have a GW called me about a year ago because he saw online pictures of a group of Jeepers who were mobbing around in our lake. He wanted to know if I wanted him to write them tickets for trespassing. I said no, just tell them to not come back. I think he may have written them-up for driving through a "sensitive Area" (wetlands) though.

I've posted pics of out of season catches to my social media accounts but only after I contacted the warden and made arrangements for the pick up of the beast in question.

This is probably the most intelligent non trapping post I have ever read on here.

Got that right.
Cougar shot in Manitoba, picture and story posted of FB

what few people know is;
all phone cameras have an embedded GPS imprinted so even the gut pile was recovered

Was it an Apple phone...? Corporate Apple people wouldn't give fed law enforcement the ability to decrypt the San Bernardino radical Islamic mass killers a few years back. I guess finding out who whacked a mt lion is more important than admitting there are Muslims who want and will kill non-Muslims for no real reason...

Catch them anyway you can as far as Im concerned a poacher is a thief and stealing from me and other sportsman while making us look bad. Would you use facebook if you found someone posting pics of traps and fur they have stolen from your traps. Just saw a guy in Colorado got caught for shooting 12 deer a bighorn sheep and 2 turkey just this year. How many do you think he got away with in past years. In most states you will never get a chance to get a bighorn sheep permit or kill a trophy buck this guy took a lot of chances away and killed a lot of genetics. A big buck, bull or ram lived that long because he was tough, knew how to escape and some thief takes him with a cheap shot out of season and like I stated how many did he get away with before being caught.

I'll give all who will heed some advice...if you don't want your business known, then KEEP IT OFF OF THE INTERNET! As far as I know, it is not illegal to peruse ones (voluntary) public comments. Use common sense, "what you say, can, and will be used".

...I don't even text most wildlife pics, unless I know for sure that I am legal to do so.

I know a fella who was on the PGC radar screen for years. Had paid numerous fines and finished up on a three year license suspension two years ago. Last season, he got a pic taken with a half dozen different bucks that his buddies legally killed. He posted a pic of him and these bucks on his Facebook page, with no commentary. The phone was ringing off the hook at the regional PGC office. It wasn’t long before the PGC had several of there people looking into the pics, and spent many hours going around trying to gather info on what they thought were illegally killed deer.

Well said.

And some ex-ones.

I've had more grief from non-leo than leo after posting location/catch pics.
I like seeing location as much as anyone
and learned long ago that not all internet trappers are genuine.
Nor are all internet friends.

Gotta grin when seeing folks bark about social media on t-man.

Just glad no anties on here

My best gobbler I mentioned earlier came from a PUBLIC post on FB. My buddy sent me a pic of a “pin” where the gobbler was and a blue dot where the hunter was. And it was a satellite view of a spot on a local WMA!!! He said if you recognize this area, there’s a turkey there that’s been kicking this guys butt for the last 2 weekends.
I’d been hunting this WMA since I was a kid and knew where it was. He sent it on a Thursday evening, so I called my boss and said I’m taking half a day vacation in the morning. I went to his spot and waded through the swamp to where he had pinpointed the turkey and waited until daylight. He wasn’t an easy bird to kill, lol. First gobble at 0650. Killed him at 1110!
An 11.25” beard with matching 1.5” Spurs...all thanks to someone posting on FB of a local public bird!

This website can not be compared to fbook or these other crap sites.

There is no way LE can investigate everything posted on social media even though we all know, “if it’s on the internet, it must be true.” lol

And long before computors and FaceTwitter came along,,they braged about them after one two many at the local gin mills.

I know one that's on here, he never posts anything, I think there are several more from other states on here, good place to watch for someone making mistakes

Its always the best route
