Southwest regional Fish and Wildlife Director Nancy Kaufman said last month that the shootings appeared to be “an at- tary of the New Mexico Cattle GrowersAssociation, said the fact there were multiple guns “proba- bly dispels the theory thatthis is a conspiracy theory or that this is sabotage.” “We don’t knowif it was a conspiracy,” Stuart acknowledged. “Wedon’t have evidenceshowing that.” John Phelps, a biologist with the Arizona Department of Game and Fish, has said the possibility the shootingswere a seriesofinci- dents in which hunters mistook wolves for coyotesis ‘pretty plausible.” He said 33,500 coyotes are shot annually in Arizona A federal grand jury in Albu- querque is gathering evidence, temptto sabotage wolf recovery.” and Stuart said a dozen Fish and But agency spokesmen no longer use the word “sabotage” except when asked about Kaufman's statement Novy. 10.

The fact that they were released where they were doesn't necessarily mean that's why they wereshot,” Stuart denied that a gun shop owner in Reserve, N.M., had been told he was a suspectin the shootings.
