The National Park Service said the incident was one of the largest illegal killings of its kind in Death Valley.

Officials did not say when the carcasses were discovered. However, they did say the killings were not part of ongoing federal efforts to reduce burro populations that have come to dominate the park’s badlands.“While these animals have a negative impact on the natural and cultural desert environment, these irresponsible actions are not warranted,” Andler said.
“Information from park visitors could be very helpful for this investigation,” she added. “Those who submit a tip may do so anonymously.” Burros remain a popular specimen of regional wildlife in the California desert: sure-footed in rugged terrain, and capable of carrying heavy loads long distances and withstanding temperatures extremes.An ornery, board-jacking sea otter is terrorizing surfers off the coast of Santa Cruz.
