In December 2023, 10 wolves were released into the Colorado wild as the start of a voter-approved reintroduction of gray wolves to the state. For wolf-lovers everywhere, it was a historic, emotional day.
Now, a year later, the majority of these wolves are thriving, and the state is prepping for more wolf releases in early 2025. 🎉
To support the success of the upcoming releases, state wildlife officials have developed an expanded plan to minimize conflict between wolves and livestock. The improvements include more program staff, faster response to livestock deaths, and a robust range rider program.
We’re looking forward to this next phase of reintroducing wolves to the Colorado wild — where they belong.
