An Idaho man has been charged with poaching a wolf that was killed from a public road.
Idaho Fish and Game says Randy Strickland, of Eagle, was arraigned in Valley County on misdemeanor charges of taking a game animal illegally and shooting from a public highway.
Fish and Game says the wolf was shot at about 6 p.m. Sept. 6 in an area closed to wolf hunting at the time.
The agency says Strickland has pleaded not guilty.
If convicted, Strickland could face fines, loss of hunting privileges and up to six months in jail.
A pretrial conference is scheduled for Nov. 16. (AP)
