[QUOTE="Hunterjones, post: 2493116, member: 112130"] Regarding the wolves……..we definitely do have wolves that move through all of the areas that I hunt in. Have they devastated the game populations in areas I hunt? No. Would I prefer they stay in YNP? ABSOLUTELY. What I have found in the areas I hunt is that the wolves hurt my hunting in some places, some years. I hunt areas primarily south and southeast of Jackson, Wyoming so some pretty remote country but not as remote as areas such as those in northern Idaho for instance where wolves have decimated game herds. I doubt that wolves will “wipe out” game populations in Colorado because I think there are just too many people venturing into the wilderness in Colorado year ‘round now. Wolves don’t really like to hang in areas that are constantly saturated with humans. That being said, if I lived in Colorado I would absolutely be opposed to wolf reintroduction there but I honestly don’t think it’s the end of the world. Please don’t any of you readers take this submission as “Pro Wolf” because it definitely is not. I just think that currently at least there are other factors that may be more concerning than a few hundred wolves running around, like hunter overcrowding and loss of winter range, etc…. [/QUOTE]
