Colorado suspends killing wolves that prey on livestock
Original: Colorado Parks and Wildlife temporarily suspends killing wolves that prey on livestock
Colorado Parks and Wildlife has temporarily suspended the practice of killing wolves that prey on livestock, a 9News report says. The decision affects the state's controversial wolf management program following the predator's reintroduction to Colorado. Livestock producers and wildlife advocates have been sharply divided over how the state handles wolves that attack cattle and sheep.
Why now: The temporary suspension is significant news for the ongoing conflict between ranchers and wolf conservation efforts in Colorado.
