			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Poaching is defined as illegally killing or taking wildlife, fish, or plants. Know the poaching laws in your state and be able to recognize when these offenses are taking place. In general, if you see or know of someone who committed this crime or is in the process of committing this offense you can always contact your local law enforcement or your county officials as they can offer assistance.</p>
<p>Below you will also find phone numbers and links for each state that can assist you in reporting poaching. You can even report these crimes anonymously. Remember to have information such as location, date and time, vehicle information, and anything else about the parties involved that will help law enforcement investigate the issue. Please help preserve the wildlife we all love so much and the sport of hunting by reporting poaching.</p>
