Melting snow has revealed several moose carcasses near Postill Lake Road that has concerned one Kelowna man.

Sean Heddle was in the area with his mother when he found the remains.

Not only was he disgusted to see the moose heads missing horns, he was upset to see them near a popular road, as it would attract predators.

Conservation Officer Josh Lockwood says this is not a fresh kill.

Officers were first alerted to this animal dump early in the winter before it was covered in snow.

害羞草研究所淲e received some complaints of animal parts deposited in the Postill Lake area,害羞草研究所� explained Lockwood.

害羞草研究所淥fficers attended and determined it was a lawful kill. Someone had taken the parts and put them out in an area to be disposed of by natural predators.害羞草研究所�

Lockwood says this move is entirely legal, but Conservation Officers would prefer hunters choose somewhere further from the public to dispose of the carcasses.

害羞草研究所淭his was not a good location,害羞草研究所� says Lockwood. 害羞草研究所淲e would much prefer that responsible hunters take their remains to a spot where it is not going to be located, if they are going to feed it back to nature.

害羞草研究所淣ot so close to a road, not so close to residents because it does track predators and we want to avoid that at all costs.害羞草研究所�

Lockwood says when placed appropriately the carcasses do have a place in nature.
