Game Wardens say a man's four-year-old son shot two turkeys with one pull of the trigger last weekend.

The problem? The boy's father thought last weekend was Youth Turkey Season and received a wildlife violation and now faces additional charges of illegal possession of wildlife.

As it turns out, turkey season begins this weekend, April 8.

To avoid getting charged with illegal possession, make sure to double check your hunting dates.
