Six wolves found dead this year in northeast Washington were poisoned, officials said Monday. Now, they're offering $51,000 for tips leading to a conviction.

Six wolves found dead this year in northeast Washington were poisoned and a reward is being offered for tips leading to a conviction in the case, officials said Monday.

Officials are asking anyone who might have relevant information to report it confidentially by calling Fish and Wildlife's poaching hotline, 877-933-9847, or by texting a tip to 847411. "Anyone with the good fortune to see a wolf in the wild knows of their beauty, intellect and tight family bond," Zoe Hanley, a wolf biologist with Defenders of Wildlife, said in an emailed statement."This cowardly act flies in the face of committed efforts from biologists, policymakers and ranchers working to recover and coexist with wolves in Washington."

Wolves were killed off in the entire state of Washington early in the last century because of the cattle industry. Since wolves returned to the state in 2008,This undated photo courtesy of Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife shows a wolf of the Teanaway Pack fitted with a radio collar in the Teanaway area of Washington's Central Cascades in Washington state. In Oregon last year, wildlife troopers found eight dead wolves in the northeastern part of the state.
