"Colorado's Gray Wolf Reintroduction Sparks Controversy and Conservation Efforts"

TL;DR Summary
Colorado has reintroduced five gray wolves in an effort to restore the endangered species, with plans to release more in the coming months. The wolves were brought over from Oregon after other states refused to share their wolves. While the plan has received support from conservationists, ranchers and rural communities are concerned about the threat to livestock and hunting. The state will compensate ranchers for any losses, and wolves that threaten livestock can be killed. The reintroduction of gray wolves in Colorado is seen as a historic event, as it marks the first time voters have decided to reintroduce a native species.
