Colorado Parks and Wildlife Confirms Colorado Gray Wolf 2505-BC Mortality in Wyoming
CPW biologists received a mortality alert for male gray wolf 2505-BC this past weekend, March 16. The agency has confirmed the mortality took place in north-central Wyoming. 2505-BC was part of the group of wolves translocated to Colorado from British Columbia and came from areas where there is no overlap between wolves and livestock. Wolves are known to travel long distances to find food or mates, including into other states. The United States Department of Agriculture, Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) in Wyoming was conducting livestock depredation mitigation in response to multiple livestock losses in Wyoming. CPW does not comment on wildlife movements, operations or regulations in other states. Any questions or additional information should be directed to Wildlife Services.
