The charges came before Medicine Hat Provincial Court Thursday morning and include improper affixation of tags, spoilage of skin and edible flesh and possession of a controlled animal.

I'm guessing
he shot some stuff and let it there to rot. At least that’s what it sounds like. Oh, that and he captured a moose to take home and train as a sparring partner.

horse vs moose, one on one.
the horse could run away (like brock does when he gets punched) or if it has balls and faces the moose, itll get thrashed and impaled by the gigantic rack of death stick on the moose’s head.
Moose are damn scary, especially males in heat. I lived in maine for 24 years, and those things are ferocious.
so, in conclusion, brock will destroy the reem’s world and make him cry. he will beat him so bad that he will pull a “tim sylvia” right there in the middle of the octagon. and I will laugh jovially.

brock eats praire dogs though.
and everyone knows, a pack of prairie dogs would rip apart any horse. horses are afraid of prairie dogs like elephants of mice.
It will be hilarious. I cant wait til the day after UFC 141 when I can come in here and gloat. because everyone loves a gloater.
and in the extremely off chance that lesnar loses (i shouldnt even say such things out loud) I will eat crow. I will not run and hide for weeks with my tail between my legs, I will face my failure head on

All I can find is what is in the story.

Seems like real mickey mouse type charges other than spoilage of edible flesh. Guess find out more in January.
Nothing "Micky Mouse" about spoiling game
If Brock’s trophy hunting and wasting the meat, his douchebaggery far exceeds my previous estimates.
One of the offenses “possession of a controlled animal,” could be poaching. Also not Micky Mouse

Who'da thought
That shooting prairie dogs with a submachine gun was against the law. Spoilage of meat? There wouldn’t even be enough for a shish kebab. I keed, I keed. Possession of a controlled animal though? I thought he was hunting mule deer in season. Have to wait to find out I guess.
He is such a great hunter
that he convinces mule deer to help him kill other mule deer.

didnt you just see he was shooting poor little animals with a machine gun
I mean a machine gun not a winchester it was just so brutal but maybe good because doesnt need too much aiming for him? I hope he will get banned from hunting really
This is not a machine gun

Following a recent hunting trip to eastern Alberta, ultimate fighting superstar Brock Lesnar is grappling with a foe in an entirely different ring.
Charges related to the improper handling of hunted game were read out against the sometime UFC and WWE champ in Medicine Hat Provincial Court Thursday.
The burly fighter failed to properly tag at least one of two animals his party had shot — a white tail and a mule deer, said Darcy Whiteside, spokesman for Alberta Sustainable Resource Development.
"They shot an animal and didn’t tag it," said Whiteside.
He also said Lesnar had removed the sex organs of his kill — another offence.
"When you field dress an animal, you have to keep the (organs to) identify the sex, you have to keep a portion of the sex organs," he said.
His guide and Albertan Chad Stryker, who was allegedly accompanying the celebrity, is also charged with the offences – unlawful possession of wildlife, abandon/wastage of the edible flesh of big game, and after killing wildlife, failure to immediately affix tag.
Neither men appeared in court Thursday.
Lesnar’s well-known in hunting circles for stalking deer in Alberta.
The mixed martial arts and wrestling expert is a three-time WWE champ and took the UFC heavyweight title in 2008.
It’s not the first time Lesnar’s gone from hunter to prey during a game-bagging trip to Canada.
While bow-hunting white tail deer 100 km west of Brandon with his brother Chad in 2009, Lesnar was struck with diverticulitis, or an inflamed, infected colon.
He ripped the care he received at a Brandon hospital as "third world … I had to get out of there."
After four days in Brandon hospital, he was driven by his wife to Bismark, N.D. where he received continued medical care.
He was sidelined briefly by the condition but resumed his bouts with the UFC last May.
It was then that Lesnar again fell ill to diverticulitis, underwent surgery and in August declared his intention to return to the UFC.

Canada actually has TWO lakes by the name.
Lesser Slave Lake is in Alberta – it’s about a 450 sq.mi. lake.
Great Slave Lake is in the Northwest Territories – it covers 10,500 sq.mi.

WTF?
“When you field dress an animal, you have to keep the (organs to) identify the sex,…..”
Uh, so on a female animal you keep…. sorry, I’m really having a hard time accepting this… What do you do with the…er… organs, make a hand warmer out of them? (I guess in Canada they call it a “toque” but whatthefuckever….)
As a hunter, the sex organ reg stuck out as odd, unless they are referring to antlers in an odd way.
Usually guys head out of state or up north to hunt bucks, not does. If he cut the antlers and cape, and left the meat to rot, that would be very poor form.
Have you ever noticed that anybody driving slower than you is an idiot, and anyone going faster than you is a maniac?

It just means you can't cut the sex organs off when field dressing (gutting) the animal.
Many hunting licenses go beyond the number of prey one can kill to include restrictions based on the gender of the animals. For instance, I am licensed in VA to kill 4 doe and 4 additional deer of either sex. The reason it is illegal in some areas to remove the sex organs is so authorities can easily check the gender of the animal. Antlers are not always present. This strikes me as a minor thing which probably just means Brock isn’t the most efficient at field dressing. In fairness, he does it with his teeth.
The bigger questions are whether the other charges relate to poaching and/or the wasting of an animal in order to simply keep a trophy.

If I had to guess, I would say he mistakenly shot a male and tried to hide it by chopping off the ’nads. That could also be the source of the wasting meat charge if they count the balls as edible meat.

First two charges appear to be civil infractions, not even misdemeanours. No possibility of jail time even if he comes back to Canada, only fines. Really, the improper affixation of tags specifically is trivial crap and something I’d hope you’d be able to settle with a mail-in fine like a $200 parking ticket.
Possession of a controlled animal is a little more serious but probably he’s only looking at a fine for that too and a suspension of his Alberta hunting license (sounds like he might have shot something-out-season). Now if he shot an endangered or protected species that might be a problem.
I hate deer
So much. I’m all about not wasting meat but, seriously guys. Eat them. But… Let’s kill as many as possible.
I'd rather be trollin'.
I couldn’t count the number of people I know who have lost a loved one due to a car accident involving deer on both hands, they need to be moved to pest level. Fucking annihilate them.

"You know Joe, if Keith Jardines last name was Johnson, the nickname 'The Dean of Mean' wouldn't work at all."
im guessing it was from them swerving to avoid it since that would be the normal reaction to something in the road. I live in modesto and we have a lot of cows on the outskirts of town and once i seen one out in the road and a semi was coming at it head on and didnt even attempt to move or anything he plowed right through it and the cow looked like it exploded, it was pretty gruesome. But we don’t have a single deer over here.
It's just that bird law in this country is not governed by reason!
