As a dog lover, I have a fondness of all canines but I'm not naive to believe that farmers and ranchers should feel the same.

Democracy:
Two wolves and a rancher’s sheep deciding on dinner.
I have no idea where they got the wolves from.
I wonder how long their little darling dog/wolf hybrid went before completely without warning swallowing their baby daughter?
I would be more concerned about all the illegals they stupidly voted in
Reintroduce them to the metro areas where the people voted for them. Not to the farming areas where they don’t want them.
Yes, wolves like elk.
Cows are slower.....................
They just want to cuddle.😳
Our recent forefathers went to a lot of trouble to get rid of them, for serious reasons.
It would be much easier and cheaper to install a few remote loudspeakers, to give out wolf howls at appropriate times, so that visitors could get a thrill from "hearing wolves". /S
Seriously, what is the benefit of bringing in wolves? They do not benefit the ecosystem.
They do not benefit prey animals.
Their only "benefit" is psychological, mostly to urban dwellers who do not have to live with them.
I purchased a lot of high fencing and treated 4x4’s from a guy that tore down the large area he had fenced in for a pet wolf. It was about two acres.
After burying chicken wire to stop him from digging under the fence and countless recaptures, he told me it pushed him too far and he used his 30-06 to get him back.
He no longer needed the fence.
Denver women and college kids know best. Silly ranchers and hunters.
I once knew a Montana rancher who could spot a male wolf 500 yards away. He said it was simple just look between the legs!
Wolves have decimated the elk herds in Montana. They literally eat the hunting dogs alive. There’s nothing good about them which is why they were hunted to extinction by the ranchers in the first place.
Pending return my butt. They are already here, down out of Wyoming.
If they are in Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming and they are there. They are already there in Colorado. Introduce them? Answer the door idiots. They did that in Yellowstone years ago.
Relax Jim. Stupid runs deep with this species.
Colorado Ping ( Let me know if you wish to be added or removed from the list.)
I like and admire wolves. But have no interest in bumping into them when out hiking or cross-country skiing.
Why reintroduce wolves? It is not like they are endangered as a specie. There are tens of thousands of wolves in Canada and Alaska. It has been proved over and over that wolves and domestic livestock do not coexist well and it is not the livestock’s fault.
“In late 2020, Colorado voters did something relatively unprecedented in the nation’s history by voting to reintroduce wolves to the state...”
Not surprising at all given that those idiots regularly vote democrat.
They’re talking about Wolverines now. Denver Hippies.
I know someone who has two wolves as pets. He has them listed as some dog breed because keeping wolves is illegal in Utah. They are really nothing like dogs. Very creepy to be around. Tails do not wag. Yellow eyes stare at you with no friendliness. They are as much like dogs as tigers are like housecats.
