UFC fighter Brock Lesnar pleads guilty to Alberta hunting charge
A lawyer for Brock Lesnar appeared in a Medicine Hat court and pleaded guilty on his client's behalf to improper tagging of an animal during a hunting trip last year.
He was fined $1,725 and given a six-month hunting suspension.
Two other charges of leaving meat to rot and illegal possession of wildlife were dropped.
Lesnar, who is 34, was accused by fish and wildlife officials of shooting a mule deer buck but only packing the trophy head out.
He was charged along with a hunting guide.
The director of the Alberta Professional Outfitters Society said it is considered unethical to leave edible meat in the field.
