Protection of Animals & Controlled Hunting is a wildlife regulatory agency due to appear in Grand Theft Auto VI, and its name is a deliberate joke: the acronym spells POACH. Judging by its title, the agency oversees wildlife protection and hunting rules across Leonida and maintains its own statewide vehicle fleet, including a police helicopter. It appears to parody the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission.
Confirmed GTA VI Material
No trailer timestamp, screenshot, promotional appearance, named operating area, individual vehicle model, or personnel depiction has been identified for Protection of Animals & Controlled Hunting. The available information confirms only its planned presence in Grand Theft Auto VI and its role as a Leonida wildlife-and-hunting regulator.
Its fleet is described only in broad terms. Apart from a police helicopter already noted on the page, no vehicle classes, manufacturers, liveries, equipment, prices, modifications, or gameplay uses have been established.
Florida Agency Parallel
The organisation is modelled on the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, the state body associated with wildlife conservation, fishing, hunting, and related enforcement. The Leonida agency’s remit and statewide vehicle presence are the details that support that comparison.
No earlier Grand Theft Auto appearance, predecessor organisation, renamed counterpart, or connection to another in-series agency has been documented.
