Manitoba Conservation says it’s investigating after a man operating a grader discovered a pile of dead Canada geese in a ditch just north of Garson, Man., on Friday morning. <\/p>\n
Scott Peluk works as a grader operator for the RM of Brokenhead. He says he was blading the road near Mile 33 Road just north of Garson, when he saw about “15 to 20” geese carcasses.<\/p>\n
“I look to my right hand side, I’m looking, ‘oh, okay, whole bunch of carcasses of geese,’ and it’s not that somebody gutted them, you know, like took the meat or anything \u2014 it was whole bodies of the geese,” Peluk said. <\/p>\n
“That’s not right,” he said. <\/p>\n
Peluk says he didn’t get out of his grader to see them up close, but says he says he noticed a few of them with “blood spots” on them. <\/p>\n

At this point it’s unconfirmed if the geese were shot, but Peluk suspects that if so, someone may have gone over the number of geese that hunters are legally allowed to harvest in a single day. <\/p>\n
“I’m kind of guessing that because there’s a limit, so I’m probably thinking they ‘uh, we’re way over, so let’s just dispose of these because we don’t want to get a fine,'” said Peluk. <\/p>\n
