DENISON, TX - Grayson County officials are investigating over 30 migratory game birds found dead Tuesday morning at Loy Lake Park.
Grayson County Environmental Officer Jim White says he arrived around 11 a.m. and found 34 birds dead, apparently from gunshots, in the northwest part of the park. Most of the carcasses were ducks, but at least one was a goose. White says neighbors reported they heard gunshots fired nearby Monday night.
Poaching is a very serious offense in Texas. Operation Game Thief, Texas' wildlife Crime-stoppers program, offers rewards of up to $1,000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction for a wildlife crime.
Hunting inside Loy Lake Park is illegal.
Game Warden Dale Moses asks that anyone with any information on these crimes call the Grayson County Sheriff's Office at 903-893-4388.
