Well red wolves sometimes mate with coyotes and sometimes a red wolf looks a lot like a coyote and some people hunt coyotes so sometimes a hunter may mistake a red wild for a coyote and shoot it. And another reason is is sometimes red wolves will eat livestock but instead of killing them you could just shoot them with a sleep fun and relocate them to a different area. The red wolf is an endangered species and It is against the law to kill them so if you have ever killed a red wolf than shame on you.
