2 wolves caught, collared in Coloradobit.ly/40viT17Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) said it placed GPS collars on two wolves Thursday in North Park, near Walden. Walden is the bull eye for these wolves and the rancher who knows them well. There seems to be one wolf missing from the family who happensto be black and did not receive a collar. I believe the lighter colored wolf is the male alpha.The wolves were first safely darted with a tranquilizer from a helicopter, allowing the collar to be fitted by field staff on the ground. CPW said that both wolves were given a health exam and appear to be in good health. Both of the wolves are male.Both animals were caught together in an area of North Park where we have been receiving reports from the public in the past couple of weeks," CPW Species Conservation Program Manager Eric Odell said. Male 2101’s collar had failed and we could see it was damaged, d is to be expected as wolves are hard on collars.Refitting 2101 and having a second GPS collar will allow our biologists and wildlife managers to continue learning about the behavior of these wolvesMale wolf 2301 is one of the pups of female wolf F1084 and M2101.The wolves collared in Colorado are known wolves in Jackson County that naturally migrated to the state and are not the result of wolf reintroduction efforts.Photo: Colorado Parks and Wildlife. ...
