Was the cow out late at night, in a dangerous area, wearing provocative clothes?
They better get used to it. I spent the past 10 years near the Gila National Forest in New Mexico (where the Mexican Gray Wolf Recovery Program is) and working for a couple of newspapers there. They don’t reimburse these ranchers for the majority of these kills.
In fact, they had two wolves that were prolific cattle and horse killers they moved to Ted Turner’s large ranch in the county where I lived. His tour business will make big bucks from his wildlife tours where you can “hear a wolf in the wild,” but his neighbors will be put out of business when they can no longer afford to feed cattle to the wolves. When the reintroduction program was proposed ranchers were promised they would remove these from the wild if they were confirmed to have had kills.
Dometic cow? Do they have wild cows in Colorado? I thought all cows are domestic.

SSS.
Kill those wolves, but how do the farmers not have barriers up?
I thought wolves only killed what they need for food. Are there so many wolves they needed six elk?
“They don’t reimburse these ranchers for the majority of these kills.”
They reimburse all kills where the proximate cause can be attributed to wolves or other wild predators.
The difficulty arises when the kill is discovered late.
They were teaching the pups how to kill.
Reading some of the comments here is hysterical.
“In my opinion and in consulting with other experts, they are teaching their pups how to kill. And as we’ve seen from the Gittleson’s cattle, they’re teaching these wolves to not only kill elk and deer, but cattle as well.”
What? This is a revelation? How stupid can you be? What else would adult wolves do with their pups? Teach them to grow vegetables?
Of course wolves are going to kill for the pleasure of it. They are wolves. It’s what they do. They kill things and eat them. It’s their function.
Is this near South Park?
When you graze cattle on tens of thousands of acres it is rare to find one immediately after being killed. Therefore most kills are not reimbursed.
They don’t only kill for food. They will bite off the hind end of a cow or calf and leave it alive to die a slow, agonizing death. They hunt for sport.
The left hate the middle class (like the Kulaks that Stalin murdered ).
As we know:: even with the cows that do not get killed by wolf packs, they stop normal weight gains, calves are miscarried, etc.

They only reimburse if they are found in the middle
of a crop circle and are highly radioactive...
