ISLAMORADA, Fla. – Florida wildlife authorities are looking for two men who are accused of cutting a pelican’s gullet and then pulling it over the bird’s head, ultimately resulting in the bird’s death.
The Monroe County Sheriff’s Office posted surveillance photos of the pair on Facebook, saying the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission was looking for them in connection with the March 8 incident in Islamorada. [TRENDING: Woman arrested in hit-run involving sheriff | Gov: Fla.
