National Park Service officials say charges are pending in connection with two hunters who illegally shot a moose at Denali National Park and Preserve.
Rangers investigated the shooting after it was reported Sunday evening as taking place in an area where sport hunting is prohibited.
Officials say the two hunters are men from the Matanuska Valley, who said they did not know they were in the park.
Officials say the man had a map, a regulation book and a global positioning system unit.
Sport hunting is allowed only in the Denali National Preserve at the western corners of the park.
