Cody Roberts kneels over an injured wolf that the Daniel man brought into the Green River Bar. There’s “at least a space,” he added, for Sublette County Prosecuting Attorney Clayton Melinkovich to present evidence in pursuit of a conviction. Communicating about the incident in 2024, Wyoming wildlife managers also cited a predatory animal exemption in the animal cruelty laws. “A wolf is in fact an animal,” Melinkovich said. All of which are protected by [animal cruelty laws].”Roberts’ trial is set for March 9 in Sublette County District Court, and is scheduled to last five days.
