I think you'll have a hard time finding any rancher who is in favor of reintroducing wolves, Colorado or otherwise.

I think you'll have a hard time finding any rancher who is in favor of reintroducing wolves, Colorado or otherwise.
- rch 9y agoWell my co-worker is one: ex-military, java/python/etc dev. I can't remember how many head of beef, but I recall being impressed. Come to think of it, another friend in Texas has 50,000 acres (family property) and would probably be in favor too. Other significant land owners have independently introduced me to Mission Wolf... one has Yak I think. Finally, I met Allan Savory not too long ago, and I'd wager that he would be happy to introduce me to wolf-friendly ranchers.
- __john 9y ago>ex-military, java/python/etc do you work at Raytheon in Aurora by any chance? I think you should ask him. If his lively hood solely depends on the livestock he raises I doubt he supports reintroduction. Same goes for the others ... it's easy to support something if there is no risk to you for doing so.
- rch 9y agoNope, not Raytheon. You make a good point, but I think that it's not really a life or death thing for any of these ranchers. Obviously if it was then there should be some mitigation in place (and probably for all of them regardless).
