Video of the wolf on a leash in a bar prompted outrage. A sheriff’s department investigation stalled, but more than a year later, a grand jury indicted a man on a felony count.

Eighteen months after Roberts’ actions incited global outrage, a grand jury decided the Daniel resident should face felony charges.

A Wyoming man accused of running down a wolf with a snowmobile and later tormenting the animal in a bar has been indicted. Cody Roberts, 43, allegedly taped the wolf’s muzzle shut before bringing it to the Green River Bar in Daniel on Feb. 29 2024. He later shot and killed the wolf outside the bar.
