Below is a Facebook post from Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks. Fiocchi partnered with the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation in 2026 to spread the word to try to stop poaching. 

“A third man charged in Lewis and Clark County in a string of poaching cases across several counties in 2022 and 2023 pleaded guilty to four of the 10 counts he originally faced, including one felony, as part of a plea agreement with prosecutors.” 

Natural resource crime is a major detriment to Montana’s natural resources and outdoor heritage. 

If you have possible information regarding natural resources crimes such as poaching, vandalism, littering, cultural resource theft, or other resource crimes, please contact your local warden by visiting here.
