[Colorado] Rancher supports wolf removal but questions long-term impact on pack behavior
From 9News.com:
For the first time since wolf reintroduction began in Colorado, wildlife officials have killed a wolf believed to be involved in a series of livestock attacks.
Colorado Parks and Wildlife said gray wolf 2405 was a member of the Copper Creek Pack in Pitkin County. They decided to kill it after determining that ranchers had experienced chronic wolf depredation despite trying all non-lethal deterrence measures and removing anything that could attract wolves.
