The antlers from dozens of illegally killed game animals — including a mule deer known as “The Rabbi” — will be auctioned Monday by Utah wildlife officials to raise money for conservation and awareness of poaching.
The public is invited to view the materials Monday starting from 2 to 6 p.m. at the Lee Kay Public Shooting Range, 6000 W. 2100 South in Salt Lake City.
Poaching takes a heavy toll in Utah every year when game animals are killed out of season, by an improperly licensed hunter, or by prohibited means. In 2019,DWR’s antler auctions generally take place every four years, although the last was held back in 2016. “Some of these items are going to be roadkill animals,” Bettridge said. “We’re going to separate all the antlers out into lots, for the most part, and auction off a lot one by one. It’ll be a set of pretty-good-size antlers with some smaller antlers in a lot.”“Some of them are taxidermy antlers on a mounted head,” Bettridge said. “Those will be auctioned off by themselves.”
