In its answer to the Trump administration’s demand for details about wolf reintroduction, Colorado Parks and Wildlife pushed back on claims it violated federal law when it sourced 15 animals from British Columbia last year.
A Fish and Wildlife Service spokesperson told The Colorado Sun Thursday the agency “received information from Colorado Parks and Wildlife about the Colorado gray wolf 10(j) management program, as requested” and that it had nothing else to add at this time.
Colorado Parks and Wildlife staff transport wolves captured in British Columbia to a release site in Colorado.
So is a 24-page report produced by the British Columbia Ministry of Water, Land and Resource Stewardship in consultation with CPW detailing the British Columbia capture from start to finish.
Colorado Parks and Wildlife released five gray wolves onto public land in Grand County on Monday, Dec. 18, 2023.
