1. What they did was wrong and illegal
2. In some locales, eagles are as pesky and bothersome as seagulls are along the coast. They are scavengers, not ‘Great Noble Hunters’.

As an example - beautiful scavengers. (AKA predator rats with wings)

If they were looking for Eagles, why not just find one of those windmills and pick up as many carcasses as they needed?

"young men shot the doe the night before by using a high powered spot light."

Must be some really really high powered light to kill a deer with. /sarc

But they will be referred to the Tribal Council for punishment......and likely nothing will happen.

The officers learned that one of the young men shot the doe the night before by using a high powered spot light.

Some folks might use a rifle for this task.

1. What they did was wrong and illegal

Only if they are non-Indians, otherwise, if they are treaty tribe Indians, they can do whatever the tribe permits - including killing as many deer as they want, and killing eagles for the feathers - both of which they can sell for fun and profit.

Non-Indians doing this are usually hung out to dry with big fines and much jail time. Indians are celebrated for continuing their tribal traditions (of rape, pillage, and murdering wildlife en mass). Moral: Know who your Masters are and stay off their ‘territory’.

Most likely hunting Eagles for their feathers. Multiple laws broken which most likely will lead to no punishment. Like other minorities Native Americans are extended rights the rest of us are not!!! As for Eagles they do what eagles do to exist nothing more nothing less.

Alaska paid over $100,000 in bounties for 115,000 bald eagles between 1917 and 1942.

That was one of many facts ignored by the EPA when they banned DDT.....

Missed the part about their being ‘indigenous peoples’.

Yup. Taken off the endangered species list in 2006, right?

They missed the Eagles and by accident hit Vikings. Damn Redskins.
