Sublette County Sheriff K.C. Lehr has received more than 7,000 emails about a Wyoming man who reportedly captured and tormented a wolf before killing it, he told Cowboy State Daily on Wednesday.
Some of those are threats.
Lehr said people in his office, as well as Sublette County and Wyoming Game and Fish Department personnel, have been receiving threats — including death threats — stemming from Daniel, Wyoming, man Cody Roberts’ reported capture, torment and killing of a wild wolf in late February.
I don’t believe the wolf was actually run over, the article says that he ran the wolf down. Meaning he chased it to exhaustion where it couldn’t run anymore, or fight/resist.
Doesn’t make it any better but it is a difference.
The article ULS linked specifically says “ran it over with a snowmobile” on the third paragraph.
Fair enough, I read this one that says “ran wolf down”. Wolf looks pretty healthy for being run over. But yeah either way not condoning.
