Linn County elk shot prompts $1000 reward and penalties

Hazelton said elk found during the day were fine after a shooting under investigation by the Linn County Conservation Department and the DNR. The Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation Hawkeye Area Chapter offered a $1000 reward for information leading to the shooter’s arrest and conviction. State civil penalties amount to $2500 for taking an elk, with possible criminal charges for discharging a firearm within a preserve or destroying county property. Dan Biechler called the act senseless and no decision on replacing the elk has been made.
