Wildlife Officials Searching For Bald Eagle Killer

The Nebraska Game and Parks Commission looking for information on who is responsible for killing an immature bald eagle in northeast Nebraska.

A "wanted" poster the commission issued on Friday says the eagle was shot about three miles southeast of Norfolk.

Bald eagles are a protected species and those who kill an eagle are subject to a year in jail and a $5,000 fine, for a first offense. Repeat offenders pay much steeper fines and can spend up to two years in prison.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Nebraska Conservation Officer Andrew Heyer at 402-613-2241 or Andrew.Heyer@nebraska.gov.
