Thanks to your help, this case is solved!
On June 8th, 2020, Melfort Conservation Officers received a TIP call regarding a gut pile found dumped on an approach approximately three miles East of Weldon, SK. Upon investigation, officers determined that a pregnant mule deer doe had been shot at an unknown location, and the hide and guts disposed of on the approach. It is believed that the remains were dumped on Sunday, June 7th, while the doe may have been shot a day or two before that. A few pieces of evidence were obtained at the scene. There was no deer season on at the time and it’s unlawful to dispose of animal parts on private land without permission.
