Ted Nugent Fined for Baiting Deer He Shot on TV Show



Rocker and celebrity hunter Ted Nugent will have to pay a $1,750 fine after pleading 
no contest in California to baiting a deer and not having a properly signed hunting 
tag.

California Department of Fish and Game spokesman Patrick Foy says game wardens 
saw Nugent kill an immature buck on a February episode of his Outdoor Channel 
TV show "Spirit of the Wild."

Investigators found that the deer had been eating bait called "C'mere Deer." Baiting 
wildlife is illegal in California.

Nugent originally faced 11 charges, including killing a deer too young to be hunted. 
In a deal with Yuba County prosecutors, Nugent's attorney on Friday entered no 
contest pleas to the two misdemeanors.

Nugent did not appear in court. A spokeswoman for the musician did not immediately 
return messages late Tuesday.
