COLORADO MAN GETS HIMSELF LIFETIME HUNTING, FISHING BAN: 'POACHER, NOT A HUNTER'The sentence was handed down by a hearing officer with CPW on June 25. "In addition, Mr. Stalley took deer meat from the same location that the bear was harvested but chose to leave all of the bear meat behind, removing only the head and hide." Stalley did have valid hunting licenses for both deer and bear at the time of the incident. If the original ruling is upheld, the ban goes into effect in Colorado and the additional 47 Wildlife Violator Compact states.
