Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks game wardens are seeking information on three deer found shot and wasted in the Swan River north of the Montana 209 bridge in Ferndale in Flathead County.

Wardens received information from a neighboring landowner who reported hearing shots during the week of Jan. 23, 2023. Wardens responded and found the three white-tailed deer in the river dead from gunshots.

Anyone with possible information is asked to call the agency violation reporting hot line at 1-800-TIP-MONT. Callers may be eligible for a cash reward of up to $1,000.
