A man who game wardens say spent two years violating hunting rules while killing wildlife has been fined more than $15,000.
Doug Wood, 25, of Hillsboro must also spend a year in jail, surrender his .22-caliber rifle and lose hunting and fishing privileges for 15 years, Judge Kent Houck ruled Wednesday.
The Department of Natural Resources said Wood and Michael T. Olson, 28, killed animals for fun, shooting deer out of season and killing game birds with a rifle without recovering the carcasses for food.
Olson, of Viola, was sentenced in March by Houck to a year in jail and was fined $7,190.
DNR wardens had charged the pair with 44 violations since December.
