WTF Wyoming? Animal cruelty should be illegal in all forms. Vehicles are for transport, not mowing down the wildlife. If you have a wolf population problem, there are better ways of handling it.
If you have a wolf population problem,
They don't.
I guess technically they do, but in the opposite direction.
Would it not be easier to outlaw deliberately running over animals? Would seem like the non-psychopathic thing to do.
I know there are reasons to allow targeted hunting of wolves in some areas. I don't know if I agree with the reasons, but I'm also not a rancher in that area and don't know the full impact on either side of the issue.
However, I feel like intentionally running over any animal is a step in the wrong direction.
More and more it becomes evident with these people that the cruelty is point.
The reason there are still hungry children is not that there is not enough food, because there is. It's that people just don't care enough about feeding them.
The convenience is the point, the ease is the point, the preference is the point. And this man had a preference to hit a wolf with a snowmobile to show it off in a bar. The opportunity was present, it was easy to do. It was a convenient way to do something memorable amongst peers.
It is not convenient to feed children. It is not easy. It is not enough of a human preference to be done.
yeah what the fuck, how could that possibly ever be safe for anyone or anything.
i was generally under the impression that it was illegal to intentionally hit anything with your vehicle without consent. i just never checked because I've never wanted to hit something with my car.
You might be a redneck if you run over a wolf with a snowmobile and then bring it into a fucking bar...
RFK Jr. is on his way…
Congrats to the wolves for getting the same treatment as humans.
