There is a felony charge and a $20,000 fine, and Colorado Parks and Wildlife take poaching very seriously, so they are definitely on the lookout. It might take a while but the murderer will probably blab and then someone will turn them in for the reward ($500 for info currently). Apparently about a decade ago CP&W tried to reintroduce lynx. Some folks didn't take too kindly to that, so they hunted the lynx, and sent pieces of the flesh of the dead lynx as threats to the DNR. It took a while but they were eventually caught. Apparently the poaching division has comparable resources to CSPD homicide so I'm holding out hope.
