Despite international outcry, a Wyoming legislative working group is proposing to continue to allow this deplorable practice of killing animals with vehicles – disgustingly known as “wolf whacking.” Instead of outlawing the practice, they’re proposing a pathetic law that will only charge the driver with animal cruelty if the animal survives impact and isn't killed right away.

That’s the only punishment a Wyoming man has faced since horrifically torturing and killing a juvenile gray wolf on February 29. We will not stop fighting until Every Last Wolf is safe. [Wolves need you with us – join today to stop the violence!]( [FIGHT FOR EVERY LAST WOLF]( WARNING: The events described below are upsetting. Let’s recap what happened on that cold February day… First, this man relentlessly chased the young wolf to exhaustion on his snowmobile. Once it couldn’t run anymore, he ran over the defenseless animal. Next, he taped the severely injured animal’s mouth shut and took it to a bar to pose for pictures. According to witnesses, the bound animal languished on the floor for hours in pain. Last, when he had had his sick fun, the man finally ended the torture by shooting the wolf in the head. This type of grotesque killing can happen when the protection of wolves is left in the hands of individual states where anti-wolf vitriol runs rampant. [End the cycle of extreme wolf violence.
