CPW confirms second wolf-kill in week

From Montrose Daily Press:

Just days after Colorado Parks and Wildlife confirmed a wolf killed a calf in Grand County, the agency confirmed a second wolf-kill in Jackson County, where a field investigation confirmed a calf found dead had injuries consistent with wolf predation. Partial wolf tracks also were found in the area, where CPW is aware of at least four wolves, including wolves released last December, and a wolf or wolves with known territory in North Park.

The kill was confirmed April 7. The Grand County depredation was confirmed April 2 and announced April 3. These were the first CPW-confirmed wolf depredations of livestock since wolves were reintroduced to parts of the Western Slope of Colorado late last year, as required under a law voters passed in 2020.
