I think they are going to catch these guys. They have parts that were broken off of the Sleds. Someone will talk. The land owner closed the trail to everyone till they are caught, so the snomobile clubs collected $5000.00 for info leading to an arrest. Someones going to talk. Hope they take their sleds, the trailers they were hauled on, the vehicle that pulled the trailer, and a bunch of money. Same as they do when you are poaching something. A little jail time would be ok with me too. Jim

Well, that wasn't the only snowmobile issue....... Authorities search for snowmobiler who killed 57 ducks
BY RUSSELL PLUMMER • The Reporter • January 14, 2009
Brutality on open water left 57 mallard ducks dead Tuesday afternoon.
Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources Warden Supervisor George Protogere of Green Bay said a call came in about 2 p.m. that the dead ducks were found in and around Fond du Lac River open water near the Wastewater Treatment Plant.
“It appears that some were struck by a snowmobile and some were run over,” Protogere said.
He added that the ducks were fine when the caller who reported the incident was near the area at 9 a.m. that day. In the afternoon, dead ducks were located in an ice hole and on both sides of the ice hole.
Protogere said the ice hole is created by hot water discharge from the plant and, occasionally, snowmobile drivers will perform “water skipping” over the ice hole.
“From what we see at the scene, it appears that two passes were made,” Protogere said.
He noted that Fond du Lac County Conservation Warden Kyle Kosin collected the dead ducks for evidence and tests will be done in an effort to learn if they had any diseases and to help determine the cause of death.
“I want to stress this is an act of one person who operated a snowmobile that killed these ducks,” Protogere said. “By no means do I want this to reflect on the snowmobiling community. … I don’t consider this person a snowmobiler.”
The dead ducks were 37 drakes and 20 hens.
Protogere said Kosin is canvassing the area around the Wastewater Treatment Plant to try to find anyone who may have seen the killings.
“I think (the killer) is a person that has no concern for life at all and decided to do a reckless act,” Protogere said.
Anyone with information on the killings of 57 ducks near where Fond du Lac River flows into Lake Winnebago can call the DNR Tip Line at 1-800-TIP-WDNR (1-800-847-9367) or the Fond du Lac Police Department Crime Alert Line at (920) 322-3740.

The people who have done this should be ashamed of themselves.They need to be more than fined,I agree w/Jim they should loose their snowmobiles as well as the vehicles used to tow them and some Jail time also!

yup. One of the guys that killed the Ducks with a snomobile in FonDuLac confessed. Guess he felt he would get off a little easyer. Looks like they charged the Deer killers with "animal assault". i would charge them with poaching so they would get more time and have bigger fines. Jim
