Talk about your strange encounters.Gary Fujak,a wildlife conservation officer in Allegheny County for the Pennsylvania Game Commition,and a deputy reported to an address where a road-killed deer had been reported.They looked and looked,but were unable to find the animal.Thats when a construction worker wandered by and told them a man had just stuffed it in a duffel bag and boarded a city bus. "After a short pursuit,we located and pulled over the bus,which indeed had a passenger aboard with a very dead and very smelly fawn in a canvas bag,"Fujak said."He promptly informed us he planned on eating the deer but didn't know he needed a permit for it."Fujak said he explained the rules regarding what the man needed to keep the deer.He then wrote him a permit on the spot and "left him to catch the next bus,if it would take him.""He didn't do any thing illegal,he just needed a permit,which we were happy to give him,"Fujak said."But it was an interesting case." This story is word for word from the Tribune Review newspaper.I guess it takes all kinds to make the world go around.
