Typically, wildlife officials are responsible for catching poachers who illegally hunt animals, but in this instance, one of these officials now faces multiple charges for illegally taking game.
A Michigan State Police trooper observed a semi-truck driver speeding and driving recklessly while crossing the Mackinac Bridge. A traffic stop revealed the driver was hauling illegal weapons.
Michigan previously had 17 official state symbols and has now added an 18th: an official state duck. It is now one of only two states that recognize a state duck.
