Wolf in Elbert County Colorado, east of I25

[Bigjay73]

A loose pet? Wonder how many other "loose pets:" are roaming the west. How long would one last without being trained to hunt at a young age?

Wolf from Great Lakes population confirmed in Colorado

A rancher in Elbert County, Colorado, contacted Colorado Parks and Wildlife after discovering a dead wolf-like animal in a legal coyote trap on April 3 on a ranch in eastern Colorado. U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service...

"This wolf was discovered the same day that CPW confirmed the first wolf depredation of a calf in Grand County. Four days later on April 7, CPW confirmed a second wolf depredation of a calf in Jackson County. Another calf was attacked on April 13 and is receiving veterinary care. Four yearlings followed on April 16 and 17 in Grand County."

Bet this makes Ranchers feel warm and fuzzy inside.
