A convicted animal poacher was ordered by a Missouri judge to repeatedly watch the Disney blockbuster 'Bambi' as part of his sentence for killing hundreds of deer.

On December 6, David Berry Jr. received a one-year jail sentence after he was found guilty of taking the lives of wildlife illegally. That said, he also received a 120-day sentence in a neighboring county for felony firearms probation violation.

Lawrence County Prosecuting Attorney Don Trotter said in court: “The deer were trophy bucks taken illegally, mostly at night, for their heads, leaving the bodies of the deer to waste," per the Springfield News Leader.
