Blood Trail,
Maybe you should read my post again. I did not say anywhere in my post that the state should rely on other hunters or citizens to provide law enforcement. I was simply stating everyone should become involved. I am a law enforcement officer and can tell you many criminals are caught because they are #1.) turned in by normal everyday citizens, #2)they do not know how to keep their mouths shut and #3)their buddies do not know how to keep their mouths shut. Obviously, many are caught by investigative and patrol work as well but citizen involvement is a higly important tool for law enforcement. If this were not the case then our neighborhood watch programs would not even exist. Virginia even has a crime watch for wildlife that is modeled after the neighborhood watch programs. Here is a link, maybe you should read up on it:

If you expect the VDGIF to catch every wildlife violation without any citizen or hunter involvement you are sadly mistaken and misinformed. The Virginia Game Wardens do a great job but they are spread thin and underfunded. I am positive they will welcome any tips or information anyone may have.
