CPW staff went to Canada before commission vote that could have paused wolf reintroductions
From 9News.com:
DENVER — When Colorado Parks and Wildlife commissioners voted in January on whether or not to pause further wolf reintroductions, CPW already had staff in Canada prepared to start capturing wolves, a CPW spokesperson confirmed to 9NEWS.
“The agency had to be ready to start capture operations if the petition to pause reintroduction was denied as the contracts with capture helicopters and other logistical arrangements were in place,” CPW spokesperson Rachael Gonzales told 9NEWS.
