Fish and Wildlife investigating two eagle shootings in Columbia County

By the Walla Walla Union-Bulletin
Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife authorities are seeking information into the separate shootings of a bald and golden eagle earlier this month in Columbia County.
The first eagle was found last week near Payne Hollow, between Waitsburg and Dayton. It appeared to be shot about a week before. It was still alive but so severely injured that it had to be killed.
The second eagle was in the Tucannon Habitat Management Unit, located downriver of Little Goose Dam, with a gunshot to a leg.
The juvenile bird is also believed to have been shot about a week before it was found.
