Rocky Mountain Wolf Project

Rocky Mountain Wolf Project Working together for wolves and people WORKING TOGETHER FOR WOLVES AND PEOPLE. We disseminate science-based information, engage people, and cultivate enthusiasm.

The Rocky Mountain Wolf Project aims to improve public understanding of gray wolf behavior, ecology, and options for re-establishing the species throughout the Rocky Mountains. The benchmark of our success: Wolves again roaming the snow-capped peaks, rim rock canyons, and primeval forests of the Rockies. We engage in thoughtful collaboration, rooted in science.

Three of Colorado's wolves--about a tenth of the state's current population--have been caught in leg-hold traps. Voters banned those traps 30 years ago, but allowed an exemption for agriculture, to be used when there is no practical alternative.

Is CPW doing all in its power to honor the expressed desire of the people? Are inhumane traps used only when there is “no practical alternative”? Are endangered species fully protected?

These are rhetorical questions.
