Outdoor Canada magazine’s penchant for sometimes going beyond the typical hook-and-bullet fare found in most other outdoor magazines has struck a chord with news watchers in northeastern Pennsylvania.
In our recent Winter 2010 issue, we ran an exclusive investigative piece by Charles Wilkins on the controversial shooting death of American Mark Harshbarger during a 2006 hunting trip in Newfoundland. The Meshoppen, Pennsylvania, man was shot by his wife, Mary Beth Harshbarger, who claims she thought he was a black bear. She is currently fighting an extradition order to face charges in Canada.
