Pack of Dogs Responsible For Wyoming Woman’s Tragic Death

Pack of dogs named responsible to a death in Wyoming on Wednesday.

Authorities were recently shocked after a woman was found dead in the state's Wind River Indian Reservation that was allegedly attacked by an animal. The incident reportedly prompt the officials to raise a warning regarding a possible danger that people may encounter involving the wildlife. Many people especially members of the Eastern Shoshone Tribe can't believe what happened since they already deal with the animals in the wild and there is no recorded incident where an animal attacked a person.

The woman who died in Wyoming was identified as the 40-year-old Deanne Lynn Coando from Fort Washakie. She is said to be a Native American woman and is a member of the Eastern Shoshone Tribe. According to a recent autopsy report which surfaced on Monday, the woman was attacked and killed by a pack of dogs in the area.

According to a statement released by Fremont County Chief Deputy Coroner Mark Stratmoen, Coando died due to hypothermia and from blood loss brought by the injuries inflicted on her by the animals. Kimberly Varilek, the attorney general of the tribe said that the attack is the first time to happen in their area and that they are not really sure where the animals came from.

Although autopsy reports show that the woman in Wyoming was killed by a pack of dogs, many of the tribe members still can't believe that the animals are being held responsible for Coando's death. According to Varilek, despite of the fact that the reservation is about 2 million acre, a death from an animal attack is considered rare.

There are also doubts surrounding the death of the woman. According to reports, there is no witness that can prove that Coando was attacked and killed by the pack of dogs in the Wyoming wild. Authorities are still investigating Coando's case while trying to warn others about the possible threat that the animals may give.
