One lone wolf took to exploring a new part of Colorado over the past month – much farther south than any collared wolf has gone since the first reintroduction more than a year ago. The monthly Colorado Parks and Wildlife wolf activity map released Wednesday showed the collared female wolf traveled through watersheds that include Lake, Park, Chaffee and Fremont counties. CPW said that just because a watershed shows activity doesn't mean the wolf was present through the entire watershed or is there currently. The map shows wolf activity between Dec. 22 and Jan. 21. Wolf activity was also recorded in Eagle and Pitkin counties. Over the course of last week, CPW released 15 wolves captured in British Columbia in those counties. Wildlife officials also released five wolves from the Copper Creek pack that were captured last year. More wolf activity was recorded in Grand, Routt, Summit, Garfield and Gunnison counties. In all, there are now 29 wolves in Colorado. "Where we open the crates doesn't really matter," said Eric Odell, CPW's wolf conservation program manager, at a news conference this week. "These animals move big distances. We don't expect the wolves to stay on a specific parcel of land for the duration of their life at all." He said they wanted to release the wolves away from people and set them up for success while understanding CPW doesn't have control over where they go. Last year, wolves killed more than two dozen livestock. CPW's director feels they will be better prepared this year to mitigate problems. "This is a whole new ballgame with the programs that we put in place and the additional capacity we're going to have on the landscape. And we've got time under the belt. Do we have a long ways to go? Absolutely," CPW Director Jeff Davis said at the news conference. CPW said collars used to track the wolves record a position every four hours. After four locations are recorded, that data is transmitted via satellite to biologists. CPW staff can use the data to see where wolves have been but not where they are at any current point in time, the agency said. Anyone who believes they've seen a wolf can report it to CPW here.
