More than 50 officers seized firearms, animal carcases and meat, including venison and wild boar.
Five men were arrested under the 1991 Deer Act.
Chief inspector Heather Keating said: This is not a local poacher taking one for the pot, but a highly organised and criminal gang taking wild animals for big profits.
Sponsored by Skinner's, this week's dog of the week is Duke. Getting into the Christmas spirit, Duke is a working gundog, stud dog and family pet. He’s described by his owner-breeders as a big, cuddly boy who loves nothing more than a day out on the grouse moor. For your dog to be included, email ollie.harvey@twsgroup.com a picture and tell us all about them. Featured dogs receive a 15kg bag of food, via Skinner’s.
