Three men from the Innu Nation of Quebec pleaded guilty to shooting 14 animals from an endangered caribou herd.
The hunters went after the animals earlier this year. But their lawyer says there is no proof they killed more than one member of the Red Wine herd.
There are fewer than 100 Red Wine caribou left, according to news reports.
