I am curious as to why there is an investigation. Stray dogs are shot fairly often in MT. Especially in cattle and sheep country.
Same!
What law could she have broken?
She thought she was shooting a wolf. If she didnt have a license, theyll nail her for unlawful hunting. The intent was there. If you shoot a robodeer, youre busted, even though its not a deer. If you sell or buy a bag of fake drugs, youre busted just as f it was real. I remember a few years back reading about some woman in idaho was walking her dog off leash, sone moron shot it, and she flipped out of course and called the local authorities, and he said he thought it was a wolf. Problem was, wolf season wasnt open. He got busted for hunting wolves out of season. Dumbass shoulda said he thought it was a coyote.
