Wow! I thought I was going to open an article condemning anyone or organization that steps in the way of Colorado wolf reintroduction, very much the opposite, that makes me happy, but what now, they already let them go, open season? Woooo hooo!!
Not for those in Colorado.
Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe they are still protected there?
