Officials with the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife are investigating the fatal poisoning of six endangered gray wolves in the northeastern part of the state, the authorities said on Monday. More than $51,000 in rewards are being offered for information about the poisonings.

The investigation began in February when officials found four dead wolves from the Wedge pack in Stevens County, about 65 miles northwest of Spokane, according to a news release from the department. Within a month, officials discovered two more dead wolves.

All six wolves died from ingesting poison, according to officials.
