Wyoming To Make Rodeo-Themed License Plate In Response To PETA Rodeo Protest

That looks like a triceratops to me, but what do I know?

A new Wyoming license plate that will be available next year will feature a rodeo theme. The lawmaker who pushed for new license plates says it was in response to a PETA effort to strip the bucking horse logo from plates because it glorifies rodeo.

Wyoming rodeo fans will be able to get a special state license plate that shows their love for the Western sport that many say embody the spirit of the Cowboy State.

Gov. Mark Gordon signed Senate File 121 into law Friday, a bill that establishes rodeo-themed Wyoming state license plates.

The plates will be available next year, and will be created in response to an anti-rodeo campaign last year to eliminate the bucking horse logo from the state’s license plates.
