Wardens: Operation Checkpoint | FD Real Show

[@BJC406]

It was quite sometime ago but I was in this episode. So much I can say about the experience and did way back when all this was being filmed and episodes produced.

[@Threesomesable]

Listening and interested....

[@JColeJ97]

What happened

[@GONEJAH1]

They put ear tags on the bears that get in trouble 😅 sounds like house arrest to me 💯

[@donaldmitchem1626]

Love the show

[@Bobbybarley1978]

Ive dealt with multiple wardens here in the south and these guys on this show are over the top. Love how they all say Not the crime of the century. But treat it as it is

[@bpdp379]

Which story exactly was over the top? Everyone got a break with the exception of the spotlighting booze cruise…

[@wyatt86k10]

​@bpdp379 I think he's referring to their attitude towards scenarios? Maybe they are being to professional, lmao idk

Oh stahp it karen

[@pltslax3188]

I live in Montana and it’s not these guys will sit at a bottom of a hill and wait for you to do one small thing wrong when your on your dirtbike and give you a ticket

[@rushhookhornadventures20]

15:26 super good warden!! Goes out of his way to make sure not to ticket little kids, and gives them the chance to explain themselves

[@JasonH17]

he could've measured the shorter horn and gave consideration of that. but i get it prosecute to the letter of the law.

[@riverratfishing]

Way to go guys. The more wardens catch the better off the honest hunters are.

[@brooklynnchick]

I’m a Montana native and a science educator; the Wardens are critical to maintaining the health of Montana’s natural animal resources. Without the limitations they enforce deer, elk, bison, antelope and our bird species would disappear to mystery meat casseroles or would rot in the fields. Fish would be over fished, raptors would be shot on sight and large carnivorous mammals like bobcat, bear, mountain lion would all be gone. Thanks warden service, you folks see weird stuff and everyone one forgets your branch of law enforcement, but without you the beauty and unique nature of our ecosystems would be impossible. ❤

At 23:56 all hunters must stop at the check station ??? What determines if your a hunter or not a hunter ???? Rather vague !!!!!

[@cherokeevolfusa2891]

Well, if you are going out to hunt, coming back from a hunt, or in the middle of a hunt, then you are a hunter. If you aren't hunting, then you don't have to stop.

[@JimHerman-o3q]

Yeah without watching this show unless I had big game I wouldnt have thought every hunter has to stop.

[@JimHerman-o3q]

[@69n420]

Remember to measure the deers antlers before shooting guys

[@timothyransom7101]

Or a better idea is be sure of your target in the fact that it's legal and be familiar with laws and regulations in the state in which you hunt. Doing this would prevent having to carry a tape measure and trying to run down or catch a deer to measure antlers. 😊

[@englewood1971]

When in doubt don't shoot. 😊

[@aarongilbertson3074]

Or a better idea tag it the correct way. The issue came from tagging it wrong

[@doughaven-rf8id]

A young hunter usually doesn't have the experience to make that judgement so should be hunting alongside an experienced hunter their first years. I have seen this many times where ... " They are young and didn't know" ... not a good enough reason.@@timothyransom7101

[@jackdundon2261]

I've met a few game wardens in the woods over the years and none, not one is as badge heavy as the ones on this program. It just dramatized for TV viewing or what?

[@RJB]

You answered your own question

[@bigham1jb]

You don't know how many hours they shoot video to make a single episode.

[@tactidadcb3999]

If you honestly watch and have a brain half of the "events" you can tell are staged like how does the Camera man get directly beside a truck that supposedly runs??

[@jeffbauer1609]

The restriction on antler length for spike bucks is so asinine. Any spike is nearly guaranteed to be a 1 year old deer. Therefore, the antler length is of zero consequence. How can any hunter reasonably judge that in the field?

[@stevenheathman3942]

Must of never hunted a good quota hunts They have width restrictions where I live. And most hunters here don’t have an issue with following these restrictions. Pretty easy to tell if a spike is over 4 inches and if it’s close, then don’t take the shot.

[@texasranchadventures]

Out of like 20 drunk drivers that I’ve seen on this show I finally see one go to jail. Not sure if I should be happy or upset about it.

[@startover125]

These guys need support and some better technology, you’re trying to catch the bad guys, and then they equipment fails, they need more support, nothing should fail while they’re out on a mission, that’s upsetting and the bad guys get away

[@webbspawn]

Oh yeah big boy not the bears or the wolfs it’s these guys oooooooooooooooo

[@GlendaGolding]

What are the regulations for someone who is living off their land? Do they still have to report killing animals on their land and have a hunting license?

[@TheAcenightcreeper]

Yes, animals are not private property, they belong to the public…only time private land matters is if you are hunting farmed animals like pheasants, private fishing ponds, farmed deer with high fences…

[@danikettunen3796]

Living off of the land does not mean you are exempt from following hunting and fishing regulations. Unless you fall under tribal regulations.

[@GlendaGolding]

Thank you for answering my questions. I’m not a hunter and haven’t really been around people who hunt. I was just curious how it worked for people living off grid on their land. Again thank you for answering my questions with respect.

Im taking it that these wardens don't have the power to arrest which is surprising. I was a State Park Ranger here in Colorado and we could throw the bracelets on people and arrest them for some of these violations. Poaching, DUI, possession of a firearm while intoxicated, eluding a stop. State Park Rangers can make physical arrests for misdemeanor and felony offenses and for warrants.😎

[@dbx1233]

So, the Game Wardens want to put an ear tag in the bears ear. A lot of people don't know, but if you gently and softly blow into the bear's ear they will lay down and go to sleep. It's really quite astonishing.

[@Smoketownedc]

I seen you’re wearing camo so i went ahead and stopped you for profile knowing the most likely wont take it to court and make them pay a fine on the spot.

[@JiminTennessee]

Thank you Patriot Act for allowing the “authorities” to profile US Citizens for wearing a specific kind of shirt. Well done😂

[@JiminTennessee]

Also, how about someone telling these “authorities” they are performing an illegal search and seizure. And to go get a search warrant. Good grief…I have a shot that is safe and effective for sale 😅

[@bullcrap9409]

They aren’t. Don’t need a warrant if you’re trucking around the proof of your crime.

[@kd5nrh]

Especially irritating since I spend a lot of my weekends in camo doing wildlife photography. No bag limit or closed seasons for the camera, and endangered species are a bonus. Plus it gives me something to do with all the camo outside of the hunting seasons I'm interested in. But then, I'd also be the guy stalking their decoy with a camera. And if I figured out it was a decoy, I'd be extra sneaky right up until I can pop off a couple of big flash heads and blind anybody watching for the next 15 minutes.

[@davidalexander4043]

just get a permit do not hunt off season game and fish there watching you. you can not see them there watching you

[@nxrvll6301]

Is the elk decoy Not entrapment?

[@jackdundon2261]

Their argument is. Is it entrapment for Walmart to have clothing on his shelf or a candy bar and a store they put it there. You make the choice to shoot it or steal it.".

[@robertdwilliamsjr4781]

. How can it be entrapment. Entrapment is when police talk someone into committing a crime he/she would otherwise not commit. If you'd shoot at a decoy you think is a deer, you'd shoot at a deer if it was real. My best friend is a warden and I an armed security officer and had to take a lot of law enforcement tests

[@Tankeryanker339]

@@robertdwilliamsjr4781exactly no one twisted your arm to shoot the decoy

They aren't forcing anyone to shoot the decoy. It's no different than a bait car. Just cause it's there doesnt mean you have to shoot it.

[@kyleyeupell6145]

Ruby ridge was entrapment. These guys were never coerced into shooting at a decoy. They made that choice themselves.

[@pauloglesbee9517]

Out at distance, how in the world are you gonna decipher between four and almost 7 inches? The other antler looked definitely four or less. Could’ve easily let this one slide. I’m gonna watch the rest of the video now and see if I have to eat my words.
