From StatesmanJournal.com:
Oregon State Police are asking for help to identify the person responsible for illegally killing a wolf in Union County last month. It is the ninth wolf killed in a poaching incident involving Oregon’s most controversial predator since 2023.
Fish and Wildlife troopers responded to Catherine Creek Lane, about 11 miles southeast of Union, on Jan. 29 and located a wolf tracking collar, a news release said. The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife identified the collar as belonging to OR-86 — the alpha male of the Frazier Mountain Pack.
