Washington State Faces Backlash On All Sides Over Wolf Killings

Wildlife managers in northeast Washington are removing a wolf pack known as the the Profanity Peak Pack following a number of cattle kills. The state faces opposition from tribes and pressure from locals as they proceed.

Cowlitz tribal elder Roger Dobson said the extermination of the pack violates Native American treaty and religious rights.

“Our sacred animals are our religion,” Dobson said. “They are a part of us they are a part of our beliefs.”
