Investigation launched into antelope trappings on land near El Paso AUSTIN (AP) — Investigations have begun into a possible violation of federal law during an antelope trapping operation in *West Texas, officials said. Charles Allen, Texas Parks and Wildlife Department wildlife divi sion director, manned the net gun in a helicopter that may have crossed the border into New Mexico in pur suit of three antelope during a cap ture procedure Jan. 30, the Austin American-Statesman reported Sun day. TPWD Executive Director Charles D. Travis said he had re tained a former Texas Ranger to head an independent investigation of the incident, which might consti tute a violation of the Lacey Act. He said federal officials in the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s regional office in Albuquerque, N.M., are also inves tigating. The Lacey Act prohibits the trans fer of unlawfully obtained animals or animal parts across state lines or national boundaries. Penalties can involve stiff fines and jail terms. “If it is a Lacey Act violation, that’s a federal offense, and any type of criminal prosecution would be up to them,” Travis said. Investigators are looking into whether the aircraft actually crossed into New Mexico to capture the an telope, which later were released on the Lado Ranch near Van Horn, and whether the action was deliberate. "Anybody can make a mistal I ravis said. “I don’t necessar think so (that the violation wasdb crate), but that’s what I’m trying find out.” T he antelope capture was ducted on the Cornudas Rant!
