We kicked off the week this week covering a multi-year Montana poaching investigation that resulted in guilty pleas for the poaching of three bull elk, a black bear and a whole lot of trout. We’ll also cover off the failure of a new Wyoming bill that would have outlawed the use of snowmachines to mow down predators like wolves and coyotes. We also got the details and pictures of the fattest cat ever captured in the state of Florida along with the story of citizen’s arrest, bear penises and a porcupine and we’ll chat about Rocky Mountain National Park’s bulging moose populations.

We're also covering:

• Florida hunter who illegally shot a rare Tundra Swan last year gets a lifetime hunting ban plus fines
