Title: Kill em' all and let God sort em' out

"When the hunter realized his mistake he immediately notified Colorado Parks and Wildlife officials, authorities said, adding that DNA testing performed at a forensic laboratory in Oregon confirmed it was a gray wolf."

If the authorities needed DNA to confirm that it was a grey wolf.... you do the math.  It was an honest mistake.

They probably ran DNA to confirm it was a wolf and not a hybrid and not because they couldn't visibly identify it was a wolf. In that part of Colorado i would think its an honest mistake because the guy was a couple hundred miles from any known packs.
