They have to offer a reward that big to tempt someone to squeal because they know that anyone in the know likely agrees with the action.Field&Stream article in case you haven't seen it.
$80,000 reward.

Naaaaaaaaw....I have it on good authority that Bigfoot moved his clan to Michigan and is now using the Alias...." MUDDYBOOTS"
Putting collars on dogs, in ice chests, trains, semis, etc all good but I know a better place to put them, without lube, and that's with the folks (Libs) that created the problem!! 
This issue was solved decades ago for a reason and those Trust Finders needed a purpose in life so they started the problem all over! JMO

I figured you lived in the city. I do live in Pennsylvania and no they haven't made it this far YET. We have coy wolves here and they came from Michigan without the help of city dwellers and wolves will do the same. Wolves need to be managed by the state wildlife service not do gooders from the city or Washington. I'm guessing you are a transplant from New York or California?
AMEN to that. I have heard of videos of wolves taking down a pregnant cow elk just to rip out the fetus and leave the cow to rot. They kill stock for fun and pets like it is a video game. About six or seven years ago a rancher lost 50 sheep to wolves in one night in west central Montana.

The original target was like 30 breeding pairs in the yellowstone park. Now there is many times that number and when I pass thru every year I hardly ever see a moose and elk sightings are even getting rare. If they had stuck to the original plan, everything would have balanced out. Now there are wolves scattered over most of the western states and the feds are doing nothing. They need to let the individual states police the numbers.
I tried to explain this to everyone I knew before the vote here in Colorado. I managed to change one person's mind before the vote. All I told her was to actually research the impact to game herds and ranchers in the other states. She came back a day later and said 'no way'. I changed a few other minds, too, but that was after they'd already voted yes.
We ran into CPW in unit 3 just after the vote and they said the wolves in unit 2 were crossing back and forth between CO and WY and they were being shot in WY. Apparently, folks were going right there to shoot them after the news broke that the pack was there. The CPW officers were deer hunters and were quite happy about it. I hunted in unit 2 last year and never saw sign of wolves.
Now, a few months back there is a pack around Walden that has killed two cows, maimed another and killed a couple ranch dogs all on the same ranch. It's the first proven wolf depredation in CO in way more than 50 years.
Hunters didn't do a very good job about getting the message out before the vote. I mean, I changed minds of a few folks, albeit too late, who are not hunters but city dwellers.

A good reason for NM Game & Fish to deny the existence of wolves is once they are here NM is habitat for them and then has to be managed for them. I wish I could trap a large pack and let them loose on the Washington Mall and in Central park. If the idiots making the decisions had to live with them, they would stop the nonsense. Deer hunting in NM has declined dramatically since they introduced the Mexican Gray wolf. Probably just coincidence.
Yeah its crazy how fast they can travel. They say one of the fastest land Mammals is the Cheetah. Topping out around 70mph.....couple states in two days! These new non-native invasive species wolves.....suckers travel 500-600mph and cross a state in less than two hours. Thats why all the Farmers, Ranchers, Fisherman, really hate and try to keep invasive species out of their area. The Feds and states used to want them all out....now they kinda get woke selective to really help with the wolves feelings. Proven invasive non-native species can do crazy things to the ecosystem and ruin and or even eliminate it.

Unfortunately most things these days are 'solved' by judges rulings or at the ballot box. Very little biology left in decision making

They are already there. Had a pack near camp in the Zerkles fall of 2019
Hmm, I am thinking Saber Tooth needs to be revived and released into former areas where they roamed. Regardless of population centers. Only fair since they have familiarity with their former land areas.
