Wolf found dead was poisoned
The Associated Press
BOISE - U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service agents confirmed Friday that a male gray wolf found dead three weeks ago in a central Idaho wilderness area was poisoned.
The 2- to 3-year-old wolf, which wore a radio-tracking collar, was killed by eating meat laced with a gray granular poison known as ''Temik,'' a pesticide commonly applied to agricultural crops such as potatoes.
The killing of an animal protected under the Endangered Species Act is punishable by a fine of up to $100,000 and one year in jail.
