PENDLETON, Ore. (AP) -- Wildlife experts say they believe the carcass of an animal found dead in northeastern Oregon is a wolf killed illegally. They can't be killed except in the defense of human life
Wildlife experts say they believe the carcass of an animal found dead in northeastern Oregon is a wolf killed illegally.
...sounds like a suicide to me....
Thats a sad stort. The cute puppy is dead.
Someone forgot the shovel
Sounds like a lot of time and money spent investigating. They ought to just forget it and do something useful.
Here I will now shed a tear.
I am wondering what the evidence has to be for the different states? Paw print, bite marks, etc... I know of one rancher in Montana that gets to deal with the wolves at will now. He purchsed two long range rifles for that reason and was able to take those two rifles as deductions off his taxes because they were deemed required tools for his ranch. Got to love that.
KB, I understand your frustration... There is a poison that will only affect carnies.. Wolves Coyotes.... And dogs. Without liberal trapping and the fire on sight season like we have for coyotes i would assume that we will be dealing with wolves for a long time. There was a reason that poison was used the first go around, it was effective... I think if the Feds and or our state took a little different role in this wolf issue many people may not feel the need to t take matters into their own hands.
, it sounds like it wasn't a gun shot (again, a guess). My first thought went straight to poisoning.
he initial examination didn’t confirm a cause of death, authorities said. A necropsy completed in Idaho confirmed the death was the result of “a criminal act” about a week before it was found. The specific cause has not been released. Bruce Eddy, Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife Northeast Oregon region manager, said the X-rays did not find an intact bullet, but there were potentially lead fragments.
I hope they find them all dead
So back on topic of an Oregon wolf being shot.....I personally am suprised more havent been killed here in the NE with how many problems we have had in the last 2 years.
