TURN IN A POACHER

In NEW YORK: 1-800-TIPP-DEC (847-7332)

In ONTARIO:  1-800-222-TIPS (8477).

Those who fish without a license are thieves, stealing from all of us who did buy
a license to support fish hatcheries, fish managers, Conservation officers and on and on.

TURN IN A POACHER? ..................HOW DOES IT WORK? 
A person witnessing a possible violation of the environmental conservation law, can call the toll-free number. Callers need not give their names or testify in court. The information is relayed to an environmental conservation officer to investigate. From time to time rewards are paid. A committee of TIPP members, administers the rewards. To date more than 165 rewards have been paid to the amount of approximately $25,000. 

WHO ARE POACHERS & POLLUTERS?
  • Poachers are not sportsmen, true sportsmen follow the laws. Rather a poacher is a person who disobeys the laws and behaves in an unethical manner.
     
  • A polluter is a person who breaks the law by disposing of items in places not provided by law as a refuse area. 

    WHAT INFORMATION IS NEEDED WHEN MAKING A CALL? 

    This is very important

     
  • Violation ~ date & time
  • Identifying features of suspects 
  • Vehicle type & color & year    License number is important if you can get it
  • Description of what seen 
  • As exact a location as possible 
  • Number of suspects 
  • Type of weapon 
  • Any other pertinent information.
