Moose SHOT in Sugarbush, NY

Last week some moron shot and killed a moose on Goldsmith Road in Sugarbush, NY The moose was left on the side of the road! The DEC is saying it was a 700 pound female and they have an idea who killed the moose, but cannot prove it as yet. I guess I am just venting here. I live on Goldsmith Road and have had moose in our yard several times. We have many sightings throughout the year here and often see moose prints on the road. People have to know that moose are protected in New York. Why would someone do something like this?????? OMG! I'm so angry!!!!!!!!!
