Clearly, neither did the "rescuers" who took it off.
(IIRC, they tried to cut the tire but it was steel-belted or something
and that didn't work, so they moved to Plan B.)

I remember reading that... I just don't understand. I've used a sawzall
to cut steel belted radials off of rims before so I could scrap the
metal rims. I don't understand why they didn't have the technology to
do the same.

I have no idea.
Maybe they had limited time and just didn't have it /with/ them.

"After tranquilizing the animal, Swanson called in Murdoch to help
remove the tire. The pair worked quickly — since they knew the
tranquilizer wouldn't work long on the 600-pound animal — sawing off the
bull elk's antlers and maneuvering the tire over the animal's head and
off its body.
"We would have preferred to cut the tire and leave the antlers for his >rutting activity, but the situation was dynamic, and we had to just get
the tire off in any way possible," Murdoch said, adding that the bull
elk "looked really good" after having the tire removed."
