From Meat Eaters World News headquarters in Bozeman, Montana,

this is Cow's Week in Review with Ryan Cal-Alla. Here's Cal.

Thirty-nine-year-old firefighter Matthew Glenn Mayor of Claypool was charged last week with

illegally taking a white-tailed deer, but that is the least of his worries. Mayor was also charged

with resisting law enforcement and battery on a public

safety official, both of which are felonies that carry serious jail time. Seems that Mayor was

trespassing to hunt deer and neighbors notified police when they saw him chasing one particular

deer over a field on private property. After DNR officers spotted his side byby-side, they ordered him to stop, but he fled the

scene, and when officers caught up to him at his home, he allegedly pushed one of them.

This might strike you as a pretty garden variety wildlife crime story.

Not really much to write home about, except for the fact that mayor himself did not write,

you know, that song about mothers and daughters.

This particular mayor was a conservation officer with the Indiana Department of Natural Resources.

You're not going to speculate about the possible former workplace tensions involved in this

incident, but you'd expect that after chasing poachers for a living, Mayor would have learned

to commit wildlife crimes with a little more guile. Of course, he may have thought of this as part

of his compensation package. This week, we've got the legislative desk, keeping it in the family

poaching style, and the mailbag, but first I'm going to tell you about my week and my week,

well, went by real fast, gang. As you are well aware, we are seeing rollbacks of public
