Some Say Legislative Response To Wyoming Wolf Torture Doesn’t Go Far Enough
From CowboyStateDaily.com:
There’s agreement across the board that the torture of a wolf in Daniel, Wyoming, last year goes against everything Wyoming hunters stand for.
But as House Bill 275, written in response to that incident, advances through the Wyoming Legislature, whether it should be legal to chase and run down wolves and other predators with vehicles remains a hotly debated point.
“Why can we not put something in a bill that stops the use of motorized, over-the-ground vehicles and over-the-snow vehicles to be used as a weapon to kill any wildlife, including predators?” Rep. Mike Schmid, R-La Barge, told the House Travel, Recreation, Wildlife & Cultural Resources Committee on Tuesday.
