Kenora Hunters Fined for Shooting Moose

Three Kenora residents have been fined close to five thousand dollars for illegal moose hunting.

The trio were hunting north of Dryden last December, when one of their party shot at a bull moose while standing on Glider Road.

The court heard that they did not have a valid bull moose game seal.

Diane Neniska was fined two thousand dollars for discharging a firearm from a roadway, and 750 dollars for making a false statement to a conservation officer.

Stuart Neniska was fined one thousand dollars for unlawfully hunting big game, and is not allowed to hunt in Ontario for the next year.

He and Mark Carlson were also fined 500 dollars for making false statements.
