Wolf had a paw injury from inadvertently being trapped and had started to prey on livestock instead of wild game. My uneducated guess it was likely a rancher/farmer.
From article:

Three wildlife conservation groups are adding $10,000 to a reward for certain information about an Oregon wolf killed illegally last fall in Klamath County.
The Center for Biological Diversity, Oregon Wild and Cascadia Wildlands today announced a $10,000 reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction for the illegal killing of a collared male grey wolf in Klamath County. >

I am reassured when there are good people in the world doing things like this. We are in the middle of a culture war. It's important to fight back. The increased reward may make all the difference. >

I dunno, if some wolf was killing my livestock I'd probably do the same thing. >

You'd have insurance that paid you more than the meat on the hoof.  Healthy wolf populations manage healthy deer populations make for healthy forests.
Maybe if you had livestock you should actually care for it if you give a shit. >

And healthy wolf populations kill the coyotes who make up the MAJORITY of livestock deaths from wildlife >

I just want Hargeovebandid to tel me his real name and address so I can collect $10 000. >

That pack has the potential to really help the repopulation of wolves in Southern Oregon/Northern California. People need to understand wolves are not callous killers. They hunt and kill to survive. These ranchers that pay ridiculously low rental rates to the Federal Government for summer grazing land think every wolf will kill every cow they have grazing. Look into Bureau of Land Management grazing contracts. It will probably piss you off seeing how little these guys pay. Wolves were there first. >

Looks like it costs about 1250 an acre in AZ which is like 1/4 the average. Damn son. >

When the 2014 Cliven Bundy Ranch stand-off over grazing fees happened it was over 1 million dollars in rent and unpaid fees that he had not paid. His lack of payments reached back to 1990. He is not typical for ranchers. Most pay their fees and consider the grazing fees as part of the cost of raising cattle. >

I believe it was the guys from the Dutton ranch. >

So help me, if it turns out that some dipshit fan of that show went out and clipped a wolf... >

I worked as a Fish and Game Warden for many years and without a doubt our greatest tool was tips from the public. I hope they find the bastard and throw the book at them. >

Yup. People who do this kind of shit like to brag
