A person who hunted a protected mountain goat in Erzincan tried to hide by crouching down and pretending to be a goat when he was noticed. However, the authorities did not fall for this trick.

An astonishing event occurred in Erzincan. A person who shot a mountain goat, which is prohibited to hunt, tried to escape when noticed by the authorities. However, when spotted by a drone conducting a patrol flight at the scene, the poacher resorted to an interesting method by crouching down and pretending to be a mountain goat to hide from the drone.

In the footage, the hunter can be seen crouching on his knees and trying to move on all fours, even attempting to blend in with nature by hiding behind rocks at times. However, the authorities immediately noticed this amateur camouflage attempt and apprehended the individual. The person, caught by the Nature Conservation and National Parks teams, was heavily fined for harming protected wildlife.
