LDWF Offering Cash Reward for Vandals on Rockefeller Refuge
OutdoorHub 08.14.11
The Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries (LDWF) Enforcement Division is seeking leads on a recent act of vandalism on the Rockefeller State Wildlife Refuge (SWR) located in Cameron and Vermilion Parishes.
The Rockefeller SWR employees noticed the new Rockefeller SWR sign had seven bullet holes on Aug. 10. Employees also found that some bullets had gone through the sign striking a dormitory building on the property. This dormitory building houses a high volume of guests year round.
The Rockefeller SWR entrance sign is located off of Hwy. 82 directly in front of the property’s headquarters building and was purchased and installed in March of this year.
Anyone with information regarding this act of vandalism on the Rockefeller SWR or any other wildlife crime should call the Louisiana Operation Game Thief hotline at 1-800-442-2511. Cash rewards up to $1,000 are offered for information leading to the apprehension of vandals associated with this incident. Callers will also remain anonymous.
