Poaching or illegal act against wildlife: make a report

Observe without confrontation, preserve the scene and send useful wildlife or habitat facts to SOS Braconnage.

Do not confront anyone

Keep your distance, especially when a weapon, vehicle or injured animal is involved. For an immediate threat to a person, call 911.

Record the facts

Note the act, date, time, precise location, number of people and species involved. Clearly separate what you saw from what someone told you.

Preserve the scene

Do not touch or move an object, carcass, trap, casing or equipment. Photograph only from a place where you are authorized and safe.

Describe without investigating

Record clothing, vehicle, plate or vessel if visible without pursuit. Do not try to identify people yourself on social media.

Report to SOS Braconnage

The service receives reports at all times about hunting, fishing, trapping and harm to wildlife habitat. Information provided is treated confidentially.
