The free-ranging Copper Creek pack, which has been responsible for multiple livestock depredations in Grand County, has been captured and removed from the landscape.
The pack of wolves from Grand County has been relocated to an enclosure in an undisclosed location in Colorado following a multi-week capture operation. It was an effort designed to mitigate conflict with livestock producers, Colorado Parks and Wildlife confirmed on Monday. Officials appear to be in talks for obtaining new wolves, but refuse to make any of the details public. This search follows a lapse in negotiations with the Colville tribe in Eastern Washington, which withdrew an offer to provide 15 wolves after learning Colorado had “failed to consult” with the Southern Ute Tribe on wolf reintroduction.
