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.

    You’re still killing it. Would you think it’s okay to kill a dog for meat as long as it’s dead before it hits the ground?

      Insofar as there’s no moral difference between killing a dog and a pig, yes.

      Ethically imo there is no difference between killing an cow/pig to eat and killing a dog/cat to eat

      it’s one of the reasons i’m a vegetarian of almost 9 years.

      That said, if it came down to a survival situation i’d have no problem killing and eating an animal… ethically speaking

        While I agree with your statement about survival, buying meat from a supermarket has nothing to do with survival (which is what 99% of people are doing).
