Bomb Transport Trailer

The trailer is equipped with a remote loading system and a robotic arm capable of loading explosive devices or chemicals into the trailer without fear of harming First Responders or others on the scene. The robotic arm transfers its explosive or hazardous cargo to a bucket, which is then pulled into the trailer, successfully keeping those involved in the response from any interaction with the device or chemical.

The Everest Video Inspection Tech (VIT) is a nine-foot-long, flexible fiber-optics cable with eight- and four-millimeter probe attachments. The VIT assists in investigation suspicious packages or potential explosives in places such as car trunks, where it would be dangerous or even impossible for a person to inspect.

The VIT can also be used in criminal investigation where officer safety is an issue

The VIT may be deployed anywhere in the state, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, via request. Requests can be made by calling (307) 777-4900 or by calling Highway Patrol Dispatch and asking for the WOHS duty officer.

Explosive Detection K9 Teams

The Wyoming Office of Homeland Security has five canines who joined the Wyoming Office of Homeland security as certified Vom Kaiserhofe explosive detection dogs. Three of the dogs are assigned to handlers within the Wyoming Office of Homeland Security. K9 team Tischer and Wilco are based in the Casper International Airport. K9 team Scimone and Lily are with the Wyoming Highway Patrol.

The canines are primarily utilized when there is no inclination of where an explosive device is located. The canines are also trained to sniff out explosive devices in vehicles and schools.

Each canine has a "sniffer vocabulary" consisting of 12 different odors.

The canines may be deployed anywhere in the state, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, via request. Requests can be made by calling (307) 777-4900 or by calling Highway Patrol Dispatch and asking for the WOHS duty officer.
