Media statement: Colorado Parks and Wildlife begins operation to capture wolves from the Copper Creek wolf pack

DENVER - Colorado Parks and Wildlife, with technical support from federal partners, and as provided for in the 10(j) experimental population rule issued by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), have begun an operation to capture and relocate wolves from the depredating Copper Creek wolf pack.

“The decision to capture and relocate the Copper Creek pack was made with the careful consideration of multiple factors and feedback from many different stakeholders,” said CPW Director Jeff Davis. ”Our options in this unique case were very limited, and this action is by no means a precedent for how CPW will resolve wolf-livestock conflict moving forward. The ultimate goal of the operation is to relocate the pack to another location while we assess our best options for them to continue to contribute to the successful restoration of wolves in Colorado.”

Colorado Parks and Wildlife is committed to fulfilling the will of Colorado voters to successfully restore the gray wolf population while meeting the needs of Colorado communities. As we have throughout the implementation of the Colorado Wolf Restoration and Management Plan, CPW is working with wildlife biologists, federal partners, and producers to develop solutions that will reduce the risk of additional wolf depredations.

For the safety of these animals and staff, CPW will not be sharing the location of the pack members or operation. CPW will provide more information and details at the conclusion of the operation

Realistically is should only cost about $0.32 to $1.25 for a bullet.

WAFJ

Gee, where in Colorado can you put them where there isn’t any livestock? Coming to a National Park or Wilderness near you….

What a FKN joke.

One year in and they are removing entire packs to new locations- due to "unique" circumstances? Imagine how many more "unique" circumstances are gonna come up in the future.

Sounds like Colorado is gonna need a new agency just to play shuffle the wolves. No worries though, I'm sure the citizenry will be happy to pass a new tax on ranchers to fund said agency. Fair is fair, right?

I hear there is a bunch of tame elk they could eat in Rocky Mountain NP.

Don’t worry, they’re flush. A $5 million bump right here. And who knows how much budget space the $32 million to the parks freed up.

Despite 70% opt-out rate, Keep Colorado Wild Passes program delivers more revenue than forecast

More than 1.5 million drivers deliver $41 million to CPW with Keep Colorado Wild Passes funding parks, search and rescue and avalanche safety.

Not sure where in their designated "northern zone" they could put them and not have the same result. certainly not south routt county. Also,will they behave like bears and return to the area they were removed from, wolves are highly mobile. What a Sh!t show!

Bookhead · 2024-08-28T08:43:04-0600

The only way they can really capture the wolves is by helicopter and net gun. Be really tough almost impossible to catch them in a live trap they're too smart. Add that to the bill

This is not a good look for the reintroduction plan and those involved with it's implementation.

Which is what happens when you can’t find anything but problem wolves to start the seed population with.

no wonder he stopped his social media

I believe Polis is cucked by his lover? Significant other? Man friend? Bride? Groom? Whatever. But that man must do what his PETA loving spouse dictates or not get his dicktasting or Hershey kiss. This is ******* up and his social media exchange exposes this. Jerry is a queer cuck!! F-ing queer-as- folk pervert!

Reintroduced wolf crosses into Rocky Mountain National Park

One of the wolves released in Colorado in December "spent some time" in the national park over the past month, state wildlife officials reported.

Now we know why they are going to “relocate” them.

Front Range Liberals Visit RMNP:

Reginald: Look dear, there's a bunch of elkies right over there!

Casandra: OMG, isn't that baby elky so cute?

Reginald: Gosh- that's a bunch of regal wolves walking up to them. We're witnessing a, a, Lion King moment! Think the elkies will bow to that King Wolf? This is soooo cool.

Casandra: Hey, what are they doing to that cute baby elky? Chasing him around like in a playground, right?

Reginald: Holy mother of Christ- AAAAHHHHH, I can't look!!!!

Casandra: Those f'ing ranchers have cut off the food source to the poor wolves! Now they are slaughtering innocent elkies for food! I'm gonna faint!!!

I would love nothing more than to see a pack of wolves, tear the guts out of a elk on the front lawn of the Stanley hotel.
