Reward offered for bighorn killer

Tuesday, Aug. 22, 2000 | 11 a.m.

The 18-month-old ram was shot between Aug. 11 and Aug. 15 near the Big Canyon Ranch, officials said.

A bullet shattered the animal's jaw, preventing it from eating or drinking. Its body was found near a spring on Aug. 19.

"The animal died a slow and painful death," said Rob Buonamici, coordinator for Operation Game Thief.
