Just call the report a poacher hotline when you get the info. Should also have you and your hunting buddy write out a simple statement hesto pronto.
F&W will proceed if you can help them with some info, the more the better.
Let us know how it turns out.

^This.
Letting it go, is encouragement for that to happen again.
Follow up, please.
At the very least, you will be providing info that may eventually lead to this 'person' being charged along with evidence to the effect that the behaviour represents a pattern, rather than an isolated incident.
Cheers

Does having a crazy man drive his pickup down the center of a field, yelling at the top of his lungs, honking his truck horn and banging a chain against the door of his truck, while your trying to line up a shot on a good buck count?
how about an anti hunting lady park her car beside yours and lay on the horn for 3/4's of an hour waiting for you to come back out to tell you your tresspassing when your not? The same lady actually walked right up to a treestand in camo during one hunt to accuse us of tresspassing. We filed complaints a couple times, but they never charged her. The cops finally told her she would spend the night in jail if she did it again, and we never had any more issues.
This year a lady called the cops and said we were tresspassing and feared for the life of her horses cause we were hunting across the road from her house. It was nice to get a cop who was a hunter. The second cop wasn't a hunter, but was still respectful. And you should have seen his eyes when he asked for my reg cert. He went bugged eyed when I said it wasn't registered. Then I told him of the ammesty and he was all good.
There are alot of anti hunters in Ontario and I've had run ins with tons of them. I just chalk it up to one of the challanges of getting my deer.
Track her down. If it's a oilfield vac truck you're in luck. Messing with someone's elk hunt is a runoff offense, or ought to be.
Oil companies are hyper sensitive to negative public relations around drilling operations, companymen tend to view females as a problem waiting to happen, and the rigs are stacked with sympathetic hunters and gun owners.
Even vac truck owners are a lot more concerned with keeping their trucks working than keeping some meddlesome biach employed.
Hitting her in the paycheck is harsher than anything a judge will hand out.

please persue. I am sure when she returned to disturb your hunt she would have been on the company payroll. Thus stealing from the company and using their assets for committing crimes. This might be grounds for dismissal all on its own. Let alone a big fine showing up at the company head office.
x2
she did that on company's time so the company is liable. I would make the complaint against the company/her boss. It is not about making her life miserable; it is about stopping her for making everybody else's life miserable. If you don't help stop her, she will do this again and ruin somebody else's day. Time is short for all of us.
If the law says a hunter can have his vehicle seized for poaching, then wouldn't it be a hoot to see the big vac truck dragged away for interference! Would never happen, but sit back for a sec, close your eyes, and picture it
Time to take back hunting! Average sheeple shriek and run at the sight of a gun. It's because the population is no longer used to seeing them. If we ALL carried guns from our cars to our houses, if we had them on gun racks in our trucks, or sitting on the back seat at traffic lights, maybe (a) the police would get tired of hysterical people fleeing for their lives, and consequently making our lives complicated (did you read the post about this past weekend's Firearm safety Course?), and (b) they'll harassing freaking out about simple, legal maneuvers. It will take a couple generations to de-sensitize the populace, but otherwise this will just get worse!
In the same vein, the more hunters sheeple see around (in corner stores, with camo and orange), the less strange it will seem. I came from a strong. multi-generation-of-anti family. Last year, I took up IPSC and IDPA, this year was Service Rifle, my first fishing season since I was a kid, and my first hunting season (shot and ate the one duck I found, btw). Just last month, I took my six-year-old son out to try a Cooey 600 (under very close supervision at the range), and he loved it. He'll come hunting with me when he's older. Reversing the trend, and getting back to food in nature!

Been there, done that.. had the person charged..
was a neighbour who was intentionally walking their barking dog down the road whenever she saw us show up for the hunt.. we called the CO and they got there a head of us.. watched as we pulled up, and within 5 mins there she was out walking/barkiong.. she got charged.. never heard of the end results though.. never saw her again

...to continue making her living from an activity which necessitates destroying some of the habitat all wild creatures like elk need to survive, but smugly deluded delusion that she is a friend of nature.
Even if you can't find out any more details that might help to identify her, even if it seems the relevant enforcement authorities can't or won't pursue the matter, please make an official complaint. At least get this incident into the statistics to which we can refer if we need to press for better response to harassment of hunters.

I agree with you, but I've also been handcuffed at gunpoint by the RCMP when lawfully and respectfully exercising my right to hunt in an entirely legal area (wasn't charged, they apologized when they let me go because they knew THEY were wrong).
Since then, I am a little more wary of where and when I hunt.
what a #####, some people are so friggin clueless its not funny.
if you ever see her again, make sure you stop her first, and thank her, tell her that because of her screaming and yelling, she helped scare the ENTIRE family of elk down to you when she sped away, say you killed momma, dad and twin babies and just wanted to thank her for all her work and you will be back next year the same time, if she's not doing anything maybe she could come back and do this again?
you will see the steam come out of her ears, I'd done this before and it always puts a smile on my face.

Get over it,find out were she works and harass her,then she will say you threatened her while holding a fire arm,then you will be the loser in this she will be free you will be in court.There are more elk to shoot so go get one.As firearms owners we can not #### around with revenge,because we will be the loser.
