Put an expiration date on the Wolf Reintroduction in Colorado: https://www.smartwolfpolicyco.com/
Can you love wolves, and still seek to end the forced importation of wolves to CO? Yes.
Can you be pro-livestock, and still acknowledge that wolves (living w/in wild ecosystems) can have a place on the landscape? Yes.
Wolf "reintroduction" was a charismatic but fictional vision that compelled Colorado voters to narrowly choose to forcibly import wolves from 1000s of miles away. These wolves could not be relocated to Federal land, deep in the National Forests where you might expect. Instead, the relocations landed wolves (with a pre-existing record of preying on livestock) into habitat very close to the heart of Colorado's cattle rangelands.
The result of this voter-approved experiment: social tension, tremendous cost overruns, and wolves, livestock and food producers being treated terribly.
