Summary

Making cases against people who illegally kill Mexican gray wolves has been notoriously difficult but some agents have the grit and tenacity to make something happen. Join Ed for his discussion with former USFWS Special Agent Doug McKenna to hear how Doug actually sent a Mexican gray wolf poacher to jail! As Ed likes to say, "If you commit a federal wildlife crime, a US Fish and Wildlife Service agent will pursue you, they will catch you, and they will put you in jail."
