- The wolves were captured in Wallowa and Union counties over the weekend. They'll form the foundation of Colorado's own reintroduction efforts, which voters in the state approved in a 2020 ballot measure.

I don’t understand. Aren’t there already four wolves in the Colorado Supreme Court?
Shameful, disgusting
They are not wolves, they’re sheep!
@@leonardsmith2198 most certainly.
Wolves are the city people's favorite pet. Because they won't have to deal with them.
Colorado already has wolves…aka politicians.
How fucked up to rip 5 members of a pack out of their home and have them wake up somewhere completely different. Different weather, elevation, everything.
Liberals are crazy
I live in the mountains of Colorado and many people said they have seen wolves up here already including my wife and brother. A first responder at work said the sheriffs department has caught people breeding wolves and just released them into the wild here in the past. They also say the black squirrels are extinct and I’ve seen them myself. Places don’t get funding if they don’t make up stuff and that’s easy money for them.
The people that voted for this, are people that will never have to interface with these animals. Any wolf seen on my ranch will go from the protected species list to the extinct species list. Bring it on !!!!
We need to ship some Kodiak bears to downtown Denver next...
Actually, we do! 😁
Get over yourself. Wolves were here before mankind ever was.
Do you think wolves are being released into downtown Denver?
Give it a rest, cool guy.
@@4strokes These wolves are being released next to our property. We have children, livestock, and domestic animals. How about a grizzly or two in your backyard?
Do you get it now? ...cool girl
@@jrad2721 I’m a canine behaviorist, big guy.
Let a few loose in the Colorado Supreme Court. Wolves love sheep in black robes.
Their judges are definitely wolves!
Please don’t insult wolves
RIP to Colorado's elk herds.
People are more of a danger to elk than wolves, cool guy.
People(hunters) regulate the elk population.
@@4strokes you are clueless.
@@libertysgarage8411 Sure, cool guy….sure.
Hilarious.
@@4strokes you have no idea what you're talking about. But if you want to learn more there are plenty of examples of states where the wolf experiment has ended with needing to cull oversized wolf packs because they get unhealthy and completely decimate the local prey animals
The trees help the humans BREATHE.
They were hunted towards extinction for a reason. The only thing a bleeding heart does is make a mess.
What’s hilarious is you actually typed that out, read it, thought you said something and patted yourself on the back.
@@4strokes Do you pat yourself on the back?
I’m betting, they get called they get called across to Wyoming . Where they’ll get whacked skinned and thrown on the floor where they belong.
@@brutishfossil5022 Nah that dog walker is in to fur play tho 😂
Should have released them in downtown Denver! City folks voted for this shit!!
Those wolves must have wandered into Colorado's Supreme Court
😁
Guaranteed these wolves will be treated better than the citizens of poor Colorado💯
Sure thing “LoneWhulf”.
By the way, a lone wolf is not a good thing.
Wolves are social animals that depend on their family to survive.
It’s usually “lone” because it’s unhealthy and ostracized from its group.
@@4strokes ummmmmm.....ok🤔 you really wasted that much time commenting? 🤣🤣🤣
@@LoneWhulfthis chick is replying on everything because she's a dog trainer so she knows and you don't . 😂
@scottleggejr ahhhhhh, I see now. 🤣. I figured something was a little "off". She's got a little too much time on her hands doesn't she? 😂 Oh and if working with huskies makes you an expert I guess I'm one too, got a 3 yr old husky female!!🤣🤣💯
@@LoneWhulf You think those comments took a lot of time to craft?
Hilarious.
Europeans erased all the wolves from Europe, then they tried it here in America
Lol when you got packs of wolves chilln in neighborhoods just like bears dont cry folks😂
Sounds like a terrible idea
Why?
What are those collars for?
So they can track them and make sure they are healthy and thriving
FOIA requests 😂
Oregon has so many predators....The wolves had to leave.
Cocaine bears, crack beavers, meth cougars... Place is wild! 😂
This is a two sides blade. It's good that these animals are back. They were here before we were. On the other hand it might have an impact on the livestock. It's too early to make any assumptions. That said, this is nature, take it with a grain of salt.
No, nature is what got rid of them in the first place. Decades of hunting in order to rid our lands of these pests.
Don't let the Native Americans hear that logic 😅. Free Palestine 😢🏹🪶
@@RipPimpCScrewstonTX F the losers of the world. Get over your losses.
@scottsands3225 buying into the propaganda. Poor logic
@scottsands3225 lol I was you during the iraq /Afghanistan stuff. I blindly hated them ( i was a bad Christian) , & justified what we did to their civilians as collateral cost. You will grow up & see things differently. They called the Native Americans "savages", today they'd be called "terrorists" propaganda lol
We have problem with stray dogs
people in our town who are Marijuana grower
Get dogs and when they lose the grows turn their unwanted dog lose
Most of the dogs being fuard dogs attack people in their home
What are you babbling about, kid?
They're about to be wolf food. 😂
@@scottleggejr Scott, cool guy, you need a new hobby.
@@4strokes I do need a new hobby. Probably take up snares and traps... Fur bearing hunting sounds fun.
@@scottleggejr How very cool and edgy.
You know you have to leave your house though, right kid?
Thats criminal to do such a thing
Of course Oregon would be the state to give in
first full moon and
boom - werewolves 😮
Lol
Of course, we also conquered their territories.
That is why I always carry.
😆 🤣 😂 well that's dumb. Not even an animal needed around here. Watch your pets and livestock. Ranchers will take correct measures, so don't get mad when they do.
Doesn't the experience in Wyoming and Montana teach these fools anything?
It didn't teach us anything, it only proved that hunters and ranchers are just scared people. City folk have more of spine it appears.
They know exactly what they are doing.
Maybe spend your time learning about things you want to opine on?
@@brutishfossil5022getting voted out 😂 look at how they manage forests in California 😂
@@scottleggejr I hope you're right, but I fear they will appoint who they wish.
I feel bad for the livestock owners, people’s pets and even people who will be attacked by them. People are natures worst enemy. Hopefully lawsuits will be filed when people are attacked or lose livestock.
Lawsuits for what? Wolves don't attack people for no reason. They were here before we were, this a non-issue
Maybe don't live on wold territory dumbass
Wolves avoid people.
These wolves are going to disappear into the wild.
You’re getting upset over nothing because you don’t understand it.
Europeans erased all the wolves in Europe. Then they tried it in America
@@Really-ej8jtput them in wolf jail but the DA doesn't press charges and let's them back out on the streets 😂
The wolves were here first❤
Peace-out 🌎💕
Yeah, and we got rid of them for good reasons.
Everything. Everywhere. Had something there before it. Your either in a place that was taken, or your migrant looking for a place to call your own. This is a fact of civilization. And the fact that taking another persons life, in service to your country, is not only legal, but commendable. Territorial battles are not unique to species, they are often studied by counterparts.
@@brutishfossil5022 yeah: to destroy the ecosystem.
Literally colorado native
Sending their problem to be a problem in Colorado.
Hopefully they have a better understanding of wolf management after previous state experiments (Michigan, for example) that left packs of wolves oversized/unhealthy and local prey populations completely decimated 😮
Michigan has a stable, healthy wolf population of roughly 630.
It’s the prey animals that are unhealthy and suffering from overpopulation.
You genuinely have no idea what you feel obligated to opine on.
They haven't. Same thing in Wyoming happened. The elk and deer all went to MT where they are liberal with tags.
@@scottleggejr Here you are in this thread vomiting BS too.
@@4strokes nope. Montana gave out 313 wolf tags this yr, 338 in Wyoming because they have catching up to do plus the park just keeps puking them out and no hunting there. Yet... Idaho had 15 tags and doesn't have a wolf problem yet. Be sure to track and name them all so I know what collar to put on my rug.
@@scottleggejr Jesus Christ, kid….
I bet you piss the bed and like starting fires too.
Maybe teach sex is not love 🌍🌎
We should never cut any old growth, anywhere, ever.
Based on what?
@@scottleggejr common sense is enough for me, but value and science are good reasons also.
@@bmatt23420 explain it more. You have a PhD in forestry management, field arborist, or just 4 sentence "news articles" backing up your opinion? Saying "common sense" isn't a gotcha without details; research. Educate us.
Not necessary. Dumb troll
This is a tragedy
Groups and governments don’t learn only people learn. I wanna see the buffalo and Indians come back. Can you make me an electric horse with a latte’ maker in the saddle…
YEAH!!!🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺
I love the wolves...they are my favorite wild animal...they seem to be my spirit guide...However, i live in the country in South Centeral Oregon and we do have many, many cattle ranches here and i can see why the ranchers would have a fear of wolf populations.. But if the wolves were set loose up in the higher, unpopulated areas, where they could be wolves and live and hunt and populate without human interference it would be great to see them come back from near extinction...After all they do have a purpose, they help to thin out deer and elk herds, taking down the sick and weak, or eating some of dead animals.. I dont see as many cougars/ mountain lions, or bobcats as i used to when hiking, so it helps balance out the need for preditors.. To keep the forests and back countries cleaned up.. They are beautiful animals and watching them is amazing .I'm thankful that we have groups like these reintroducing more of them into the wild...I just hope they do it responcebly and only release them far into the high mountains to give them a chance, cause i know many cattle ranchers, law or no law, will eliminate them if they come after their livestock...sad but true...especially during birthing season....
150 million farm animals are killed every 24 hours for food that’s not even good for us. The wolves are supposed to be there. Cattle for man’s profit in not. Because of cattle ranching there are no rivers left that we can drink out of.
Wolves they are a pack animal if you did not know that? They are not like mountain lions not even close. A pack of wolves dosent just take down sick animals they will kill anything they want, they are kings of the mountains. A pack of wolves will COMPLETELY wipe out a population of any pray species they want. Not to be mean, but your comment of far from the truth nor logical
Unconscionable!
🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺
Next month they will start reintroducing rattlesnakes in LA.
They are already there!😂
💯
They're running the capitol and courts already
I feel bad for the cows and for the wolves. Hopefully the wolves won’t get hunted down and annihilated by hunters. Cause if this is what the overall agenda is, then there’s no point to bring them back just so that they can again be hunted by sadists. And maybe people should eat let steak. So then farmers won’t have the need to complain about their livestock being attacked by wolves.
Vegetarian 1/ wk a start
Says the bug eater
Care for a nice rug or hat? How about a fur cape to go with your cane? Wolf ushanka comrade?
Tree hugger Colorado,they don't have to deal with livestock predation.
Stick to something you’re good at, like licking windows.
May be genetically modified.
99.9999%
100% they are. The extinct species is gone.
Nope, naturally occurring species.
I hope they live a sustainable life, so that they have no need to eat livestock or approach civilization.
@@Travis12861 elk are not the only source of sustenance.
@@landomilknhoneythey eat tofu too? 😂 Soy beans like all the wolf-brained furries cheering this on?

Planet earth gonna kick your ass 😂
They were here before we were and I'm glad they have come home. I understand the Rancher's concerns because my brothers are cattlemen. However, GOD made this world with animals populating the Planet before Man did. Killing or denying animals a right to survive is such a human "I am superior" action. We need to love the Earth, Animal Life, and Each Other. The wolves are back home where they once roamed. We, as intelligent people, can learn to live WITH them. Welcome Home Beauties.💞🐺
A Colorado Mountain Grandma USA 💜✌️🌍🌎🌏😊
Wolves are not endangered haven’t been fir a long time. Tyransaurus Rex was here first too but who wants them? When the wolves and grizzlies start killing things they shouldn’t people may change their minds if they don’t have their heads in a bucket.They will end up killing a lot of elk and ultimately hurt the hunting income Colorado currently enjoys. Wait and see when the pack grows to hundreds of wolves you’ll see that it’s probably not appropriate to introduce wolves into populated areas. Protecting old growth forests is another mistake that will only result in massive forest fires that the government will claim is due to climate change. Not a lot of common sense coming out of emotional decision making.
Grow up, kid.
@@4strokes dumb replies don’t count lol!
@@kirk4462 Then why do you even comment?
@@4strokes you don’t add anything to the comments when all you do is attempt to insult people with dumb replies. Maybe you can learn something. If you have something to add that strengthens your point of view say it. Telling people they are losers or to grow up add nil to the conversations and don’t count. I sad it isn’t appropriate to make decisions in environment emotionally and you say grow up? I’m only saying this so maybe you could grow and add something to the thread in this . If you can’t I understand I won’t answer you again. Have a great day !
@@kirk4462 Kid, you’re the one talking about dinosaurs.
Colorado folks better jump on this quick if they wanna keep any sort of hunting in the future. Look at Wyoming. It should be all u need to know about wolves. These EGGHEADS are trying to take away your hunting opportunities. Colorado
What are you talking about Wyoming? Theres way too many elk right now. Land damage claims from elk are up 40% and the population is over 100k and growing! Ranchers can't get hunters to kill enough of em.
@@elationedge2516 I don't believe that for a second
@@308guy8 you can look it up. This is public information.
I just love wolves especially with potato’s and gravy🤔😳😂 wolves and modern man can not co/ exists because what we can not control we destroy!
How very cool and edgy of you.
Awoooooooooooooooooo🐺🐺🐺
Who in Colorado is listening to the people? Who wanted Trump off the ballot? Who wanted da ngerous wolves back in Colorado? Time to leave Colorado?
You got it!
Yes, time for you to go.
@@Reed411 Not in Colorado. You can keep CO and your migrant headaches. Will never live in a Dem state! Lol
@@Lynne690they'll ruin it like California then snatch it all back when it's cheap 😂
HOW DOES THIS PRESIDENT FIND SO MUCH TIME TO DO SO MUCH DAMAGE TO THIS COUNTRY..????
You can’t vote for Trump either!
Damage? What, by saying you can't make money by killing and destroying whatever you feel like? What a stupid comment. Get a grip!
@@rebeccastallard5366😂😮😂😅
Can't they just write in Trump for Colorado or no?
Damage to this country?. You Trumpites are Dangerous and Wicked.
Replace humans with wolves lol
When packs of wolves start in on children, who can you sue? Or are dead children only an important possibliti to scare people into trans mutilation for 6 year oldbabies?
You think of trans people a lot, don’t you?
Interesting.
Wolves avoid people.
“ this is the land of wolves now “
I've seen bears, otters, pixies, fairies, and unicorn in Denver before 😂
Ranchers beed to stop persecuting wolves! The wolves are necessary for the ecosystems!
Apparently they are not. The Ecosystem was working just fine without them.
@@brutishfossil5022🤣🎯
@@brutishfossil5022The fact they are a native species proves otherwise. Look up the wolf reintroduction into Yellowstone.
Finally Rip Van Winkle woke up and is saving important old growth trees, that others are to stupid to leave alone!!! Yeah! Go back to sleep winkle.💤🛏️ 😴💤💤
We MUCH prefer Wolves to trump!!!!!😁
Colorado is Heaven!!😇🌲🌲🌲🐺🌲🌲🌲😇
How exciting 😅
Thank You ❤
Woke Wolves shipped to Colorado
