I am pretty sure that it is not illegal to kill even an endangered animal if truly in self defense so if the man was being honest he felt that he was doing the right thing calling the authorities to report the shooting.If lives out in rural Idaho then he is pretty far from a simpleton that is a very harsh region a simpleton would not survive out there.

This is an example of a hard core DA a rather common occurrence in the US.They also like to punish people for trespassing on protected government property even though they had no way of knowing that they where in a protected area and in violation of a law in the first place.

This guy did the correct thing and reported it even though he could easily have not informed anyone so they aim to punish the guy which will do worlds of good for game wardens who rely very heavily on other hunters and outdoors men to report violators of hunting regulations all this is going to do is make the honest folks less likely to trust law enforcement which means that the people who openly kill grizzlies will not get reported.
