Investigation Launched In Graphic Coyote Torture Video Allegedly Shot In Wyoming
BY Herschel SmithThe Wyoming Game and Fish Department confirmed to Cowboy State Daily that it’s investigating a graphic video of a man, allegedly a Wyoming resident, grabbing a seemingly wounded coyote by its tail, tossing the animal, then chasing it down to kick, stab and taunt it.
The video also was sent to Cowboy State Daily by a private investigator, Reece Soukoroff, who said he was the person who also sent it to Game and Fish.
Game and Fish Spokeswoman Amanda Fry said Friday that department is investigating the alleged incident.
Every ethical hunter knows that Coyotes are invasive in the East, and perhaps a nuisance in the West. But every ethical hunter also knows that when you make shots, you ensure ethical shots, not those to maim or cause unnecessary pain.
Those who inflict pain for the sake of pain are sociopaths and ungodly men. Avoid and report sociopaths.

Law enforcement investigative personnel – in particular those who work serial crimes, such as serial murder and rape – have long known about the so-called “Homicidal Triad,” a set of three behavioral characteristics which are highly-predictive of violent sociopathic/psychopathic criminal behavior, namely bed-wetting well past the age it normally ceases, the setting of fires (arson) and the torture of animals.
