Bonus Episode,  due to the Superbowl next weekend. Since this is an off week,  I have decided to publish Episode Thirteen - The Photoshoot, a week early!

Colorado – Keep Releasing Wolves

According to this update by Colorado Parks and WIldlife (CPW), no additional wolves will be released in 2026. Reasons cited are interference from the federal government and objections from western slope ranchers. Some lawmakers object to funding the program when the state is experiencing a budget shortfall. In my opinion these excuses aren't sufficient reason to override the will of the voters.

Destroying Wolf Hater Lies

Tour of Rocky Mountain Wildlife Foundation

Every time any article about wolves is posted in Colorado,  Wyoming,  Idaho, or Montana,  it is instantly flooded with anti wolf comments. The comments are always the same, mostly lies spread by a small number of anti predator ranching, hunting, and trapping fringe interests. I thought it high time for someone to dispell the myths and provide wolf advocates with counter arguments to the lies.

May Newsletter

Great Blue Heron

Finally getting to my May newsletter, after a month of hard work on my new substack account. May has been an exciting month, with the end of the long Colorado winter, and the return of many species of birds to the high country rivers and lakes.

Osprey and Eagles: Colorado’s Raptors Return

Colorado Osprey

This was a day that I have been eagerly awaiting for months. The osprey have completed their 4,000 mile journey across two continents, to arrive in my favorite Canyon some time this week.

When the Answer Comes

I saw a report first thing this morning about the first cattle depredation from one of Colorado's new wolves from Canada. I wondered, bow many cattle froze to death this winter, how many starved, how many died from disease. Why aren't those losses reported in the paper. Why are wolf losses the only ones getting any press?

A Silver Lining for Wildlife

Last night Colorado provided the silver lining proving that the forces of good and compassion for our four footed friends can prevail. Last night the Mountain State passed it's ballot initiative banning the hunting and trapping of big cats. California has already banned fur trapping, and with enough work and education perhaps it will be possible to implement a national trapping ban like over 100 civilized countries through the world have already done.
