Internet influencer found guilty of illegal hunting - Catherine - 08-29-2026
You may remember Samantha Strable as the person who grabbed a baby wombat from its mother in 2025. She danced around with it, causing mother and baby a lot of distress. She was not popular in Australia and the Prime Minister suggested she should try playing with a baby crocodile.
She had to go back to the USA. Now she has been found guilty of illegal hunting in Wyoming.

She hasn't learned anything from the incident in Australia. Maybe she needs to be banned from anywhere outside of a city.
I am sure she could still harass wildlife in and city. Send her to New York and she would probably get in trouble for bothering the rats.
