More than a year after Coloradans voted to formally bring the grey wolf back to the state by a narrow margin, many residents are sure to be curious about the status of the wolf reintroduction effort.![]()
While wolves are again present in Colorado (first confirmed in January 2020, prior to the November 2020 vote), the formal reintroduction is still in the planning phase and wolves that are currently present are animals that naturally moved into the state from surrounding areas, later having pups. According to experts, it's unlikely that current wolf numbers would be sustainable over time, thus the formal reintroduction effort would still be needed to truly bring the species back.![]()
The reintroduction effort got a bit more complicated when grey wolves were added back onto the Federal Endangered Species List in February of 2022, following its 2020 removal.![]()
Adding the wolf back onto the list means the federal US Fish and Wildlife Service will be involved.![]()
Reintroduction effort is still on track to start rolling out prior to the end of 2023.![]()
