DWR Officials Recover - Wildlife HEBER CITY (UPI) officials have recovered a deer carcass apparently spiked with liberal amounts of the banned poison 1080 that killed several hunting dogs and perhaps hundreds of small, wild animals. Officials and wildlife protectors were led to the deer Wednesday on Bureau of Land Management properly in the Ileber Valley by Stephen Fullmer, who discovered the carcass when two of his hunting dogs apparently died of the poison. "There's a fox lying dead next to this deer carcass along with my dog and (he other one down there tat his home dying.'' Fullmer i ..iu,,,,,,,...,,. Tickets for the Cloggers Festival on sale at ZCMI in Orem, The Provo Chamber of Commerce, the Poison-Spike- said. "I've seen poison before but I've never seen anything work so fast." A state wildlife official picked up the carcass of the deer, a red fox and a skunk for tests to determine if the poison 1080 was present. The highly dangerous chemical had been used by ranchers to kill predators before President Nixon banned it 13 years ago. Defenders of Wildlife member Dick Randall said he thought the deer had been spiked with 1080 because of effectiveness of the poison. "We're finding dead wildlife all over the place,'' he said. "We Scera Theatre in Orem, and at the door. The price is $3.50adult, and $1.50child. are Carcass d could have several hundred animals dead from this one bait." He also said the deer carcass apparently was spiked by much more poison than guidelines had recommended because of the highly toxic nature of the poison. "The dose is government-recommende- who want to talk about it with us. course the sheepmen, cattlemen and that sort of thing won't talk about it with us," she said. "Anybody who's seen anybody doing any of this really doesn't want to be involved." Fullmer said he was angry over the incident because of the death of his dogs and the danger posed to his family. "I've got five kids and anyone of those kids could have been up there and picked up a tail or something then ate a candy bar and they would have been in the same situation and it makes me angry," he saidOf d thousandths of a gram spread evenly through each pound of meat.
