CO wolf reintroduction one step closer to realitybit.ly/3oE3U3xSAG members’ recommendations note that wolves in Colorado will have both positive and negative impacts, and they will be left wherever they are if they do not cause issues. However, if wolves show up where conflict is likely, the group advises nonlethal actions should be taken first.Lethal management should not be the first in line for defenseCertain conditions under which lethal take may be used first to support effective conflict management,” the group wrote. Phase 1: State endangered status.• Phase 2: State threatened status.• Phase 3: State delisted, nongame status.Members reached consensus on the following recommendations:Lethal control — Allowing lethal control by state and federal agents for wolves caught in the process of biting, wounding, grasping or killing livestock or working dogs.Allowing Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) to determine whether a situation is characterized as chronic depredation, and if so, what management should be taken.Allowing the lethal control of chronically depredating wolves following depredation events after an evaluation of the circumstances by state and federal agents across all phases.Limited-duration permit — Allowing the lethal take of chronically depredating wolves by a producer or agent with a limited-duration permit in Phases 1 and 2.Allowing lethal control by state or federal agents for wolves caught in the act of chasing in all phases and by producers or their agents with a permit and a record of prior depredation in Phases 1 and 2.Allow lethal control of wolves involved in attacks on humans.• Allow removal of a wolf pack denning within municipal boundaries or in a high-density population area.• Do not allow regulated public hunting of wolves in Phases 1, 2 and 3. However, hunting could be allowed later once the reintroduction was a success.There are now views by the other side known as Wolf Advocates.The SAG ‘s have “tilted what should be an aspirational conversation towards a cynical one that has focused on livestock owner compensation, artificially limiting populations and when, where and how to kill wolves.SAG Group: Stakeholder Advisory Group: Diverse wolf management interests that convene to support the developmentof the wolf management plan. Most likely they are ranchers.Commons sense rules to prevent conflict between livestock and wolves is being presented by wolf advocates.The most important: It gives livestock owners incentives to take responsibility for their deceased livestock, which can attract wolves to vulnerable cattle and sheep. It also prohibits the killing of wolves for preying on livestock on the public lands we all share.These conversations will continue for some time as the deadline of 2023 approaches for the Colorado introduction.Only the peoples of the state are going to determine the final tentative criteria and then there will be conversations aboutthe right and wrong decisions and how to even the playing field.This criteria of wolf advocates will be difficult and those of uswho watch Colorado are concerned about the prohibition of the killing of wolves for preying on livestock on the “public lands we all share.” Ranchers are more than willing to let their herds be onpublic land as the benefit is “ food stamps” provided by the cheap grazing..Rancher are not known for being on the job and out in the fields watching the cattle.This Wolfwatcher from Montana is uneasy about the wolvesknowing the conditions in Montana have been governed by thosewhose thinking is from the early settlers of the west..Unnecessary killing by undereducated wildlife citizens.Bumper stickers in town “ 6 pack a day”. on pickups cruising thecity streets that’s what has been seen.Deby Dixon ...
