It was reported that Montana Gov. Greg Gianforte killed a Yellowstone National Park wolf that he trapped just 10 miles outside the Park’s boundary. Governor Gianforte did so in violation of state regulation as he had not completed the necessary trapping education course. This news comes just as a raft of bills aimed at drastically increasing the killing of Montana’s iconic wolves, grizzly bears and black bears are poised to head to the Governor’s desk for his signature. These bills include ones that would allow wolves to be killed using strangling snares, extend the wolf trapping season, and allow reimbursements for wolf hunting and trapping expenses—essentially creating a bounty.
Amanda Wight, program manager of wildlife protection at the Humane Society of the United States issued the following statement:
“Governor Gianforte just spit in the face of millions of people who come from all over the world to see wolves and other wildlife in Montana. Not only is trophy hunting wolves, especially a beloved wolf from Yellowstone National Park, ethically wrong, but economically and ecologically it makes no sense. Wolves keep ecosystems healthy and biologically diverse and are a huge draw for tourists. Yet, with the stroke of his pen, Governor Gianforte could soon set a similar fate in stone for hundreds more of Montana’s wolves, as the legislature is poised to send a number of bills aimed at slaughtering the state’s wildlife to his desk.”

A piece of excrement like him could kill anyone's dog if he didn't like it. I'd bet he's illegally shot more animals too.
Soulless asshole. 😡
