Wildlife officers are seeking information to help them determine whether a moose on the Northern Peninsula was poached.

Officers discovered a large blood stain on the road and fresh moose remains in the ditch in the Godfrey Pond area about 35 km east of the Plum Point Intersection.

Officers believe the moose was taken during the morning hours of Thanksgiving Day, Monday, October 13, and they are interested in speaking with a man and woman seen in the area and who may have been traveling in a red car.

The department of Fisheries, Forestry and Agriculture says it is an offence to discharge a firearm from a highway, including the shoulder of the road.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the Resource Enforcement Division at 709-637-2971, or contact the province’s 24/7 Poaching Line
