Influencer at Center of Wombat Uproar Charged in Wyoming Over Alleged Hunting License Fraud

Investigators cite records indicating she failed to meet Wyoming’s residency rule.

Overview

  • Sublette County court filings list eight misdemeanors: six counts of false swearing, taking wildlife without a license, and nonresident hunting without a guide in a wilderness area.
  • Samantha Strable was arrested and booked on November 21 in Sublette County, then released the same day on her own recognizance.
  • An affidavit from a Wyoming Game and Fish warden says cellphone data, social media activity, and employment documentation placed her mostly outside the state.
  • The investigation reports she spent 29 days in Wyoming in 2024 and one week in 2025, yet obtained resident elk and antelope tags and killed both animals that fall.
  • Wyoming law requires a full year of residency and revokes resident status after absences over 180 days, and court records list her current residence as Great Falls, Montana.
