Call to Action: Colorado Wolf Proposal
To All Colorado RMEF members,
Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) is planning to adopt one of two alternative resolutions regarding wolf reintroduction in Colorado. The meeting is this Wednesday, January 13. The pro-wolf people, in-state and nationally (Defenders of Wildlife among them), are rallying hard, flooding the CPW with emails and planning to have "hundreds" of supporters at the meeting. Find a link of our letter to the CPW here and we ask that you make your feelings known as well by emailing the CPW.
Pro-hunting groups will also be represented, but we are likely to be outnumbered. The pro-wolf people are going at this very hard and may be bussing people in from Boulder.
The alternatives are shown below. The best alternative for hunters or anyone really concerned about overall wildlife management is Alternative 2.
Please send emails to the CPW at [email protected]. This is an important step in delaying or prohibiting the reintroduction. The pro-wolf people are all over this. We need the help of all hunters!
David Allen
RMEF President & CEO
