Somebody illegally shot and killed a bull moose in East Canyon earlier this week — and the Utah Division of Natural Resources is asking for the public's help to locate the poacher.According to DNR, at about 10 a.m. on Monday a “concerned citizen” was in East Canyon above Little Dell Reservoir and saw an unidentified man stalk the moose, then shoot it with a compound bow from about 20 yards away. The moose staggered “a short distance” before collapsing and dying.The
