Seeking Public Assistance

​Oregon State Police Fish and Wildlife Division is asking for public assistance in locating the person(s) responsible for the waste of four black-tailed deer. Two does and two fawns were shot and left to waste.


On, Nov. 17, 2023, at approximately 8:30 a.m., troopers responded to a call of multiple deer shot and left on Stimson Timber Company Property in Tillamook County. This incident occurred in the watershed area where only youth are allowed to hunt. 

The deceased animals were found in the following areas: 

  • One doe and one fawn were shot and left to waste on the EB110 Road. 
  • One doe was shot and left to waste near the half-mile marker of the Old Crow Mainline Road. 
  • One fawn was shot and left to waste on the 4015 Road approximately 100 yards into a new clearcut area. 


The investigation determined the deer were all shot around the same time frame – possibly during the last week or weekend of general deer season or the last weekend for youth hunters. Each animal was shot and left without salvaging any meat. 

Anyone with information is encouraged to contact the Oregon State Police Dispatch at 1-800-452-7888, *OSP (*677), or email at TIP@osp.oregon.gov. Reference case number SP23364118.​
