Wyoming hunter, 42, poses with exhausted wolf he tortured and paraded around his local bar with its mouth taped shut before shooting it dead - as his family member reenacts the sick scene
Sick fuck.
shame that any animal suffer such a cruel demise, but even sadder to see an apex predator (and a famously dignified animal) abused in such a fashion. you just know in a fair fight that wolf would’ve had his number.
Yes in a fair fight the wolf would have ended it quickly and painlessly and not immobilized and then proceeded to rip his body limb from limb.
Not a hunter, a complete pile of shit
Agreed. I am a hunter, as are many friends and family. No one I know would do this. Hope he gets the full weight of the law thrown at him.
EDIT: Thanks for informing me of his "punishment." He got off way too easy.
In this instance, the entire weight of the law in Wyoming is only a $250 fine…
Wow. That's pathetic.
Ngl it s sad bcz this guy is sociopathic and i wouldnt trust him around a weaker human.
I am not an animal person (they scare me), but i could never ever torture em for the giggles.
https://www.npr.org/2019/11/25/782842651/trump-signs-law-making-cruelty-to-animals-a-federal-crime Trump signed this into law 5 years ago hopefully it will suffice in giving some justice.
They are going after him now for felonies! It will be way more than 250.
Good it's more than accidentally killing the wrong animal during hunting season it's legit torture and things that would be considered crimes against nature.
Really? People have gone to prison for torturing cats and dogs.
Ya, I guess in Wyoming animal abuse laws don’t extend to wild predatory animals.
The fine is for being in possession of a live wild animal I suppose.
That’s it for torturing an animal? Jeez.

I know hunters and none would torture any animal. None would prolong suffering. This pos is garbage.
Fucktard has no respect for animals and clearly has no self respect.
He already did. You know laws are garbage and the government is trash.
Dude I don’t even hunt, but if there’s an animal mortally wounded on my property, I’m going to ease its pain. My dogs have gotten ahold of things, it sucks, but that’s owning dogs and property.
This dude brought a suffering animal, to his property, for show? Pile of garbage.
I also hunt and am genuinely blown away that there is not a harsher punishment for him despite it being labeled a pest species; how is duct taping a wolf’s mouth and torturing it a legal take method?
Yeah, his "punishment" amounts to nothing.
Unfortunately in this case the full weight of the law was pretty light.
Looks like $250 fine? That’ll show him!
He got a 200 dollar fine.
Don’t label him a hunter. Label him as a complete psychopath. He doesn’t deserve to be called anything else.
Hard agree
This is a link to an online petition against him. Not mine, just saw this the other day and thought to share here. https://www.change.org/p/demand-felony-charges-against-cody-roberts-for-animal-cruelty
This won't do anything.. Apparently his wife is with the city and he has done this kinda stuff before.
Helps spread awareness. If I didn’t share this link I’d have no idea about his wife.
Fair enough
His wife can be pressured then.

He'll probably move on to people next. Psychopath
He’s probably already done this to people
Next? Look at Mr Optimistic here
Probably? He probably already is doing things to people just maybe not this extreme yet. See if he shows up in the news in the future. Everyone that knows him will be like "yea we knew something wasn't right but nobody believed us".

People who torture animals eventually move on to humans. Jail him for life.
I wonder what the actual percent of this is? It’s gotta be extremely high honesty. I also bet it’s even higher in people that torture mammals.
I recall a duality of my past. Whenever we would find spiders in my home, I would always pick them up gently with a napkin and escort them outside. I also loved taking care of frogs and lizards in a place my brother and I created called “froggy world”. Then…the demon in me is when I shot yellow jackets with a super soaker and trapped them in a ziplock bag. My brother and I straight up hated yellow jackets and where we grew up there were literally hundreds (likely thousands) of them. We sorta made a “sport” out of disposing of them, but we didn’t do anything I would deem torture (at least as I recall).
The one kid in neighborhood who abused animals is in jail as an adult now after getting caught abusing children 🫤
I wonder what the actual percent of this is? It’s gotta be extremely high honesty. I also bet it’s even higher in people that torture mammals.
Idk. You can get away with it longer if you don't move to humans. I knew a guy through work that was a total sociopath. On top of being a compete asshole, he did things like shoot one of his employees with a tazer. He adopted a dog from the pound and then killed it and ate it. He had pics and everything.
Aside from that he was a pretty successful business owner. Has a family and kids. Blended in fine as normal even though he was a sick twisted fuck.
An excerpt put out by the Massachusetts government in a pdf titled, "Childhood Animal Abuse and Violent Criminal Behavior: A Brief Review of the Literature":
"The following statistics from various studies demonstrate the link between animal abuse and violence towards human beings:
70% of all animal abusers have committed at least one other criminal offense and almost 40% have committed violent crimes against people.
A survey of 117 male inmates incarcerated in a South African prison, found that 63.3% (58) of men who had committed crimes of aggression admitted to cruelty to animals while only 10.5% (59) of the nonaggressive inmates admitted to this.
A comparison study of undergraduate students and incarcerated felons found that 63% of inmates and 20.5% of undergraduates reported abusing animals. The majority of exposure occurred between 6 and 12 years of age.
85% of women and 63% of children entering shelters discussed incidents of pet abuse in the family
More than 80% of families being treated for child abuse were also involved in animal abuse
70.3% of women in domestic abuse shelters reported either threats or actual harm to pets, with 54% reporting actual harm
32% of pet-owning victims of domestic abuse reported that one or more of their children had hurt or killed a pet; and
Approximately 25% of the battered women reported that concern for their pets’ welfare had prevented them from seeking shelter sooner."
Edit: link
the article says he's already getting death threats. power to the wolves.
Good. I hope they have to go in to hiding and have their lives utterly ruined.

I understand that hunting can play an important part in population control, and with nuisance wildlife, but this is not hunting. This is disgusting, and it's partly why so many people do view hunting negatively. This guy sucks.
Plus, he hit it with his snow machine, that's not hunting.
*removed accidentally, the piece of shit did it on purpose

I've been informed that he ran it down while he was out hunting. However, i still maintain that calling him a hunter in the headline is misleading when he's clearly a piece of shit.
So, I don’t think he accidentally hit it. I read in a few other articles that hitting game with snowmobiles is legal in Wyoming.
This is NOT hunting by an measure and the hunting community are rightfully throwing the hammer at this guy. Completely embarrassing behavior from a sick fuck
Fuck this guy (The asshole that tortured wildlife, not landel)
Thanks for the clarification Kennys-Chicken
Arguable about "accidedentally"... article says he ran the wolf down
I’m starting to think Ramsey Bolton had some good ideas on torture.
Make him reek
*holds up a sausage*
This guy literally did a Red Wedding type of animal cruelty
Sick freak, I hope the rest of his life fucking sucks.
It sure would be a shame if someone treated him the same way.
Dexter has entered the chat.
This is not hunting, it's just animal cruelty. Disgusting
The guy is a piece of shit, a total piece of shit. I’m sure he thinks he’s a tough guy but in reality a total coward and should be thrown in jail
How many people witnessed this and did nothing
It's Wyoming, that state is chock-full of people who hate wolves and are happy to see them suffer. Every time that I've driven through and stopped for gas, I've seen a poster that is advocating for wolf hunting.

Done and done. Thanks.
So, has he been charged with animal cruelty and inhumane treatment of an animal yet? If not, he definitely should be.
Sadly, in backwards Wyoming, animal cruelty laws do not apply to animals considered “predatory” which wolves (outside of Yellowstone, Grand Teton, and immediately surrounding areas) are. So this man will get off with nothing but a $250 fine for “possessing” a live wolf. I have written to the governor letting him know that this insane law should be changed, and I encourage others to do the same!
That's some bullshit
I’ll do this! What’s the address and the name of the governor? This is awful, this guy will absolutely do it again
The governor’s name is Mark Gordon! I used the contact form on his website. I don’t know if we’re allowed to post links in this sub, but you can Google it. Thanks for taking action!
I sent something too but I don’t know if they will listen to me since my address wasn’t from Wyoming.
Neither is mine. I’m sure they are less interested in what out-of-staters have to say, but I think it’s still worth doing. I did mention that I will not visit the state until the law is changed. Wyoming depends on tourism and many tourists go there specifically to see wolves in the national parks, so it‘s in their best interest not to be seen as a state that condones cruelty towards wolves and other predatory animals.
it could still have an impact if they think their current laws makes their state look like a redneck backwater.
That’s bullshit. He should lose his hunting license forever.
how is that possible. This man is a threat to people as well as animals.
The almost more disturbing part is what others at that bar didn’t do. No one stopped this guys or called the pd?
And a relative of his, (that lady in the picture), took pictures of herself mocking the wolf’s death. Weird stuff.
Agreed.
Tells you something about Wyoming lol
It starts with animals.
It doesn’t have to progress beyond animals for decent people to be nauseated by this sick fuck. I genuinely hope he pays for this in this lifetime, and I genuinely hope I get to hear about it.
I agree entirely. Everything about this is an attempt to celebrate cruelty to an animal.
The animal rights people better do their damn thing
Or just be an animal rights person for yourself?
It would be a shame if something happened to him

Tough guy.
What a disgusting thing to grin about. The guy is glowing with happiness.
I was wondering if there was an update to this. He still walking around unharmed? Would have lost a bet on that one.
You’ve never been to rural Wyoming I’m guessing?

Human trash.
Fucking piece of shit.
I bet he feels like a real man now 🙄
Why are people such losers…running it over on purpose with a snowmobile is bad enough, but then he had to torture it. Fucking shit for brains

I am in Australia but does anyone know where we can write to the heads of the state concerning this? I am willing to reach out to anyone at this point to make sure he receives the justice this piece of utter 💩 deserves! I am sick to my stomach and so angry. That poor, precious baby. 💔💔
Insert mean comment worthy of getting deleted
People who shoot things and then pose with the body are the weirdest fucking humans. So bizarre.
Sadly I this type of disregard for wolves is all too common among hunters. I've heard many fellow hunters say they'd do disturbing types of harms to wolves if they encountered one. Many fancy themselves biologists and blame wolves for not seeing any deer. I've called out every person I've heard saying these gross things, and it does get them to shut up, but has yet to change a single mind. I really wish I met more hunters out there who care about conservation and ethical hunting. Sadly, most I've met don't have any consideration for the animals they hunt. And I've been hunting a long time. And am from a place where a ton of people hunt.
Fucking PUSSY!!!!
How is he a hunter? He hit the thing with a snowmobile..
Citizens arrest. Cruelty to animals. It amazes me that people will have dogs as pets, but don’t really care about any animals besides humans and dogs. This disgusts
The f*ck is this shit?
This guy isn't a hunter or conservationist, he's some yeeyee hick yokel who needs to go hunting with Dick Cheney.
I’ve read the bar AND the hunter are receiving threats because the law didn’t do enough.

Why the fuck would you do this? A human like this needs to be on an FBI watchlist. Torturing animals is always a sign of a completely disfigured psyche.
And this is why we have jails.

That’s not hunting. That’s animal cruelty. I don’t hunt but I am a gun owner so I have friends who do hunt and let me tell you, they not only practice so that their shot is placed humanely as possible but they also use the entire animal that they harvest (that is the term they use when they shoot an animal). They’re harvesting the meat and my one friend is into taxidermy so he uses the body to create artwork. Still, they don’t torture animals. That is NOT hunting.
r/iamatotalpieceofshit. Him and his whole fng family.
Poor wolf…this guy is a total scumbag
There's a lot of sick people in this world.
Prison for life.
Despicable sick fuck. Unironically wish we could do some pentagram shit and bring back the wolf in exchange for his life. Jk. Or am I who knows??
I get it wolves aren't dogs but still damnit as a dog lover this shit just makes me so angry.

Insisting on calling this guy a hunter when it’s completely irrelevant to the headline is playing to a narrative that gets real old. He’s an asshole and apparently criminal who should be prosecuted.
Why not list other unrelated shit to rage bait? “Dodge Ram driver tortures wolf.” “Android user tortures wolf.”
This makes me so god damn mad.
Fuck that guy
Monsters will be monsters.
What a complete piece of shit. There are no words for what I would like to do to this evil sicko. Wipe that stupid grin off his face!
Fucking hell this absolutely broke my heart. What a piece of shit.
Humanity is generally such shit. We stand on the technological shoulders of a few giants that stood on the shoulders of even fewer giants. Otherwise society has not moved forward much more than monkeys that can talk and still fling shit.
I’m sure AI is already being asked “how can we save the planet?” and there’s no doubt that the answer is “kill all humans.” The animals and plants will rejoice in unison cuz we traaaaash.
PIECE OF SHIT
not a hunter, hunters dont do shit like that
A hunter with no respect for wildlife is just a coward with a powerful weapon.
Welp there’s one guy whose dad didnt give a shit about
A curse upon him and his house
Remove his Tongue.
This wolf was also basically a puppy. Not even a year old. Rotting in a jail cell for the rest of his life is too good for Cody Roberts and his inbred family.
That entire Wyoming town supporting him is full of inbred hicks that don't deserve to be in the same species as humans.
Anyways, this is the bar that is defending him, in case anyone would like to leave a review or make some phone calls about how they encourage psychopathic behavior. https://www.yelp.com/biz/green-river-bar-daniel
God has a paddle for everyone’s ass
He is not a hunter. A true hunter wouldn’t have run down the wolf with a snowmobile and if they did run it over, they would have ended his suffering not paraded the animal around.
How can someone have so little empathy?
This isn’t a hunter this is a psychopath
Evil fucker
This guy needs to be jailed. He is clearly a psychopath
They should’ve confiscated his snowmobile and revoked any license required to operate it and any other motor vehicle.
