I see your definition and that of the first definition I saw from the internet, and coming from a family of hunters/fishers, it surprised me a bit. I associate poaching almost entirely with killing of animals illegally. I think that is because in my home state, there were fewer problems with people trespassing to hunt than with those hunting with no regard for licenses/hunting laws. The Wikipedia article on poaching in the USA[0] is more what I associate with poaching.
