First Calf Killed by Wolves since Reintroduction into Colorado

Last week, Colorado officials confirmed the first calf killed by wolves in the state since the large predators were reintroduced in December.

Greg Henderson writes in Drovers that a Grand County rancher found the dead calf on April 2nd, and wildlife officials confirmed that the animal was killed by wolves on Wednesday April 3rd.

Henderson writes that the wolves released in Colorado were from packs in Oregon that were known to have killed livestock in 2022 and 2023.
