Tagging a Buck
Image
Two conservation wardens are crouching to tag a buck lying in the snow. The buck was killed illegally. Two other wardens are standing and observing. The group of men are dressed similarly, with wool winter jackets, knickerbockers, and laced high topped boots. One warden is wearing a brimmed hat with a wide band; the others have hunting style caps. The badges are visible on three of the men.
