Annisa, A man in Wyoming became infamous for horrible abuse against a wild wolf he captured and later killed, yet at the time he was barely punished. Why? Because in most of Wyoming, killing wolves is completely legal — and hunters can use any method at all to do so.
The so-called "Wolf Captor" of Wyoming made international headlines after he injured a wolf cub — using a snowmobile to run it over until it could hardly move — and then muzzled the animal, keeping it captive and parading it around town, before ultimately killing it.
He even brought the defenseless wolf to his local bar, where he took photos grinning while holding a beer in one hand — and roping the terrified animal in close. After he was done, he took the captive wolf out back behind that very same bar. And then he shot and killed it, after it had out-lived its entertainment purposes.
Yet since wolves are considered vermin and predators in most of Wyoming, the state's Game and Fish department only penalized him with a $250 fine. Now, a year later, he's finally being faced with felony animal cruelty charges.
But even now, Wyoming lawmakers still haven't set limits on how people are allowed to kill wolves — or even on how many wolves they may kill. Torturous trapping, violent explosive and firearms, sadistic vehicle collisions are all acceptable forms of slaughter. Sign the petition to demand that Wyoming leaders change the law to show proper respect for wildlife, including wolves, by protecting them from wanton killings. |
