Colorado Cattlemen hear of new wolf petition being presented to CPW
From SteamboatRadio.com:
Wolves was one of the topics at the meeting on Tuesday. A speaker from Colorado Parks and Wildlife said to expect another petition to the CPW Commission from multiple wolf advocacy groups.
He said the petition will ask that ranchers be compensated for an animal only if a wolf is the direct cause of the death. That means ranchers cannot submit itemized production losses, such as weight loss, of their herd. The agent said the other item on the petition would take away verification for compensation if non-lethal forms of mitigation are not being used, or have not been used by a rancher.
