Colorado suspends wolf depredation policy over population concerns
Original: Colorado Parks and Wildlife suspends wolf depredation policy due to concerns over population
Colorado Parks and Wildlife has suspended its wolf depredation policy, citing concerns about the state's wolf population. The policy had allowed action against wolves involved in killing livestock. The suspension means fewer interventions against problem wolves as officials weigh the risks to the species, a move likely to draw reaction from ranchers and conservation groups alike.
Why now: Colorado's wolf reintroduction program is contentious, and any change to how problem wolves are handled affects ranchers and conservationists.
