A Texas man has paid nearly $12,000 for illegally killing a bull elk in the wrong game management unit and then lying about the location to officers from the Colorado Division of Wildlife.
Mitchell Phelps, 46, of Athens, Tex., shot a six-point bull elk while archery hunting on Sept. 16, in game management unit 61, a prized limited-license area on the west side of the Uncompahgre Plateau near Montrose. Phelps license, however, allowed him to hunt only in game management unit 62 located just to the northeast of where he was hunting.
