Death of a Minnesota Eagle Draws Big Fine

48-year-old Kathrine K. Tram of Mora paid a $2,500 fine for killing a bald eagle in Kanabec County. Crosslake DNR Conservation Officer Nikki Shoutz tells KLKS News, they are working together with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to protect bald eagles and their eggs from being killed, sold or otherwise harmed. Fortunately, she says, these kinds of acts very seldom happen.
