LHeym500Colorado Wolves back
Colorado has voted overwhelmingly according to press return Gray Wolves to Colorado.
Personally, if you do not own more than five acres and do not own livestock you should not have been permitted to vote on this issue.

Lamarbless their hearts.
hopefully they come get them from around here.

surefire7Well, it wasn't by an overwhelming vote. It passed 50.4% to 49.6%.
I am so pissed off. They plan to introduce them in the No.1 prime Elk habitat.
Thanks Colorado. The western slope, where they are introducing them, was totally against it. Denver, the population center, was greatly in favor of it. I think they should dump these damn wolves in the front and back yards of the city folks of our capitol who voted this bill in.

LHeym500The hippies who passed this have no idea of the impact of concentrating a mega predator in a relatively small area with unaccustomed prey.
Nor, will the Hippies have to live with the consequences.
The first pack should be introduced on the quad of UC Boulder.

Oh yes they do it is all part of the anti hunting anti gun agenda.
Less hunting less guns.

cooperjdstick it to the hunters. Stick it to the cattle ranchers who are "responsible for climate change with their cow's farts".
When the elk tag sales drop and CPW has to stop offering OTC tags and the hunting goes to shit, they will declare yet another victory.
It isn't even that I'm opposed to having wolves. I'm opposed to weaponizing the ESA to keep CO from managing them properly, which will be coming.
And yes, 99.9% of the yes votes will have no idea of the actual impact to wildlife.

BaxterBThis is another subversive initiative funded with out of state money. They are pernicious because the vast majority of people voting have no idea of the complex nature of what is really happening. The same shit happened in Seattle with an ivory ban - it was unreal how absolutely stupid the people actually are,..,,

No it is not.

376 steyrThe wolves will migrate from wy. soon anyway.

Bill/OregonThey sure found their way into Oregon.
That said, trying to find a ray of light in this, is there a chance that wolf predation pressure could act as a brake on the spread of CWD in Colorado's cervid populations? We have it in our elk and deer here (in NM Unit 34), but only a very small trace of Mexican gray wolves.
Part of our problem is that our elk numbers are well above management objectives.
There is hope, even when your brain tells you there isn’t.

They’ve been coming across for years, but they get shot or relocated back up north very quickly.

Heed the words of Winston Smith in Orwell's 1984:
"Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right."

Lamara hundred years ago there was a bounty paid on wolves.
the cattlemen paid it in some places, the county in others and feds in some instances.
occasionally a guy could collect from 2 or more sources on one animal.
and it wasn't a pittance, a couple of good trappers could easily pay off a homestead or two within 2 years from the money they made if they worked at it.

Wasn't even that long ago places were paying bounties up until 1973.

chuck375They used to pay bounties on eagles too.
