right there it says gray wolves were eradicated from colorado and are not believed to exist in the state, only to call if you "think" you see a wolf.

FWS is saying the gray wolf i endangered. although, they are hunted, were allowed to be hunted a year or two in wyoming. ranchers can shoot them to protect cattle. I would think a truly endangered species would be protected, then the rancher compensated.

right here they say wolves resemble dogs. as do coyotes.


I come to the conclusion that wolves do not exist in colorado, yet they look and act like dogs, could easily be confused with a coyote and there is nothing I have read that says they can not be shot as a varmint since they do not exist in colorado.
