Hunting illegally

It is really hard to prove people that hunt illegally. Unless the game warden watches them or has video tape of them doing it they could convict them easily. If they didn't see it then it mostly is someone tells the game wardens and from there they need enough evidence to convict them. There is so many people that hunt illegally. For all the people who do hunt illegally and don't get caught the people who do get caught should get punished severely to maybe scare other people. For some illegal hunting fines are just a slap on a wrist and it won't stop the people from hunting illegally. Not many people will stop hunting illegally unless stronger punishments are forced on the people. The main one I am talking about is the guy that shot a huge buck in Minnesota last November. He pleaded not guilty to three new accounts on January 22, 2010. He already pleaded not guilty to thirteen accounts. He already shot two deer before the world record with his bow. In Minnesota the law is to only shoot one deer a season with a bow. They are going to test his hunting jacket for gun powder to see if he shot it with a gun. He could easily lie and say he wore a different jacket. The buck is the biggest four-by-four ever found or shot in the world. If he is convicted I hope he doesn't just get a slap on the wrist especially when it's a world record. He has committed many previous convictions. He needs to be punished severely enough so he will not do it again, because he did keep doing things illegally. This needs to show everyone what can happen if you do hunt illegally to.
