Criminal charges are more frequently issued than in the past. What's more, the typical fine and jail time imposed have increased. Besides the blot of a criminal violation on your record, you can also face the "double fine" of having to pay restitution for injuring state wildlife which the DNR says it owns.

Added to that are later penalties such as confiscation of your game, firearm, vehicle or other property which are discussed elsewhere on this web site. Furthermore, you may jeopardize your privileges to hunt and fish in Minnesota or in other states or in Canada.

Criminal charges can lead to serious consequences - some you may not even anticipate. Know your rights and the penalties before you take a step you may regret.
