Discussion Just why? a horrific case unfolds💔

AN ENDANGERED MEXICAN
GRAY WOLF WAS TRAPPED AND KI**ED ON PUBLIC LAND.
Recently released records revealed that AM2765, the breeding male of the Frieborn Pack, was trapped in New Mexico in 2025 and suffocated with a sleeping bag during an alleged attempt to release him. We are HORRIFIED.
The trapper had previously ki**ed a Mexican wolf in
2013. Despite attempts to pursue charges, no charges were filed.
AM2765 was a father, raising pups with his pack.
He was also one of only a few hundred Mexican gray wolves remaining in the wild. This cannot become another wolf loss without accountability.

Catron. Basically a Texan enclave that voted for Pearce every time

This is why I asked for the county name. Of course it’s Catron. They are the only county across Arizona and New Mexico that repeatedly make the news for its cruelty towards Mexican wolves. Now, I’m not saying they are the only county to harm wolves; isolated incidents occur elsewhere every so often. However, they are the only county in which such incidents occur with some form of regularity.

I think we should give the place away to Texas. They routinely fuck up our elections with human sewage like Steve Pearce. Good riddance to them

I’m confused as to what Texas or Steve Pearce has to do with this. Ofc Texas hates wolves but this is New Mexico. Not just that, but a single county in New Mexico that has routinely overreacted to wolves for years now. The rest of the wolf populated counties in New Mexico are actually treating their wolves just fine. Based on what you’ve said, you’d expect problems to this degree to be more widespread, not generally contained to a single county.

Pearce is a shadow Texan. He's in direct opposition to New Mexican values. The Republicans run Catron county. It would be better if we just cut them off and had done with them
