A Morehouse Parish man was cited by the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries for alleged hunting violations on February 8.

George Mosely, 45, was cited for taking a Louisiana black bear during a closed season. He was also over the seasonal limit of antlered deer, deer hunting without a basing hunting license, deer license and deer tags, and harvesting a bobcat without a basic hunting license.

LDWF and Morehouse Parish Sheriff’s Office issued a search warrant of Mosely’s home and found him in possession of bear parts, two antlered deer heads, two freezers full of deer meat, and methamphetamine. Authorities say that Moselt admitted to harvesting a black bear with a bow and arrow in Richland Parsh in October 2023. He also admitted to harvesting four antlered deer, two antlerless deer, and a bobcat with a rifle.

The seasonal limit of antlered deer for this area is three.

They say Mosely may also face civil restitution totaling $16,525 for the replacement value of the illegally taken black bear, deer, and bobcat.
