The lethal removal took place the evening of May 29 on an unidentified cattle ranch. It was the first time that officials with Colorado Parks and Wildlife have killed a wolf since the voter-led reintroduction effort began in 2023.⁠ ⁠ Tap the link in profile for the full story 🔗⁠ ⁠ #wolf #wolfpack #wolves #graywolves #colorado #livestock #depredation #wildlife #conservation #outdoors #nature #outdoorlife⁠ 📷: myodfw⁠ Story by: dac.collins
