SALEM, Ore. (AP) - The Oregon Hunters Association is offering a reward of $15,000 for information leading to the arrest of a bighorn sheep poacher. The Oregon State Police say three rams were killed in Gilliam County in Eastern Oregon last month.
The Statesman-Journal reports (https://is.gd/dyT6NG ) the hunting group runs a “turn in poachers” program that annually pays more than $13,000 to informants in poaching cases.
The bighorn sheep were killed and left to waste along Interstate 84 east of Rufus on April 10.
