While they were investigating, state police said they found a black bear that had been killed earlier strapped to an ATV outside. They called the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources, which dispatched a bear biologist and a sergeant who found a turkey that had also been poached.

State police said they seized 11 marijuana plants, some of which were being grown inside and others outside.

The fish and wildlife department seized the ATV and a .30-06 caliber Ruger rifle.

Jonathan D. Mitchell, 25, was arrested on charges of illegal taking of a bear, illegal taking of a turkey, cultivating marijuana, trafficking in marijuana, possession of drug paraphernalia and possession of marijuana. He was taken to the Harlan County Detention Center.

The state fish and wildlife department says the 2017 bear season for hunting with dogs opened Saturday. There are quotas for how many bears can be taken during the season.
