The state of Colorado has gone through an extensive, legislatively mandated program to set up for the reintroduction of wolves to its mountains and plains.
There was a statewide vote several years ago. Then experts offered advice and bureaucrats were consulted. Negotiations got under way. Plans were made. Procedures adopted.
Now, apparently, it lacks only one thing: Wolves.
According to a report from CPR, the state has a deadline at the end of the year to reintroduce wolves, as voters specified in a 2020 ballot issue.
But Idaho won’t help the state get any wolves. Or Montana, or Wyoming. Or other locations.
The report cited Travis Duncan, of Colorado Parks and Wildlife, explaining the agency now is discussing its demands with Oregon and Washington, and the Nez Perce Tribe in Idaho.
The tribe has confirmed its officials are thinking about the plan.
But it’s uncertain what, if anything, will be finalized in the next few months, before Colorado’s end-of-year deadline.
Washington state officials say logistics of trapping the animals would prevent delivery by the end of the year, leaving Colorado with the “last-hope” Oregon or Nez Perce options, the report said.
A large part of the resistance is the fact that wolf populations have rebounded so much in other areas.
The federal government returned them to the Yellowstone National Park and central Idaho region in the 1990s, and hunters and ranchers have since then been expressing opposition.
Wyoming Gov. Mark Gordon said his state wouldn’t help because they wolves could wander back into his state.
Idaho Department of Fish and Game spokesman Jim Fredericks said the plan was out because of the “negative impacts of wolves sent to Colorado will not stay in Colorado.”
Montana also has declined.
Nex Perce spokesman Aaron Miles said in the report his tribe is in “preliminary” talks with Colorado, but still has a process to follow.
Actually the state there, Idaho, is moving to reduce its wolf population by about half, from the more than 1,300 it now has.
Supporters of the wolf control plan say that would help minimize loss of livestock and elk.
IMPORTANT NOTE TO WND READERS: Believe it or not, today’s high priests of climate-change apocalypse are correct in predicting that in just a few short years, the earth will become miserable, wretched and almost uninhabitable by human beings. But the grim future they envision won’t come about because of “catastrophic climate change,” but rather, because of the implementation of their completely insane and truly catastrophic agenda.
As Greenpeace co-founder Dr. Patrick Moore recently admitted, “If they actually achieve Net Zero, at least 50% of the population would die of hunger and disease.” Likewise, writes energy expert and author Alex Epstein: “Today’s proposed policies to rapidly eliminate fossil fuel use would, if fully implemented, have truly apocalyptic consequences – making the world an impoverished, dangerous, and miserable place for most people.”
Question: When the scientific case for global warming apocalypse consists primarily of a 1-degree Celsius rise in temperature over more than 130 years, what explains the obsession with an imminent, climate-caused end of the world?
Although many groups have been drawn into the Climate Change Cult – from the news media (which has warned of climate catastrophe, either global warming or a “new ice age,” for over a century!), to innocent school kids indoctrinated by hysterical leftist teachers, to liberal Democrats who claim “climate change” will destroy the earth in a few years – the REAL villains are the national and global elites who KNOW the apocalyptic global warming religion is just a cruel hoax, but promote and exploit it as a means of accomplishing their ultimate goal: Transforming and ruling the world.
The heart and soul of today’s bizarre, pagan climate-change religion, and the global elites’ strategies for using it to rule all of mankind, is powerfully exposed and illuminated in the September issue of WND’s critically acclaimed monthly Whistleblower magazine, an issue titled “CULT OF THE CLIMATE APOCALYPSE: The elites’ breathtaking strategy for ruling the world.” WHISTLEBLOWER is available in both the popular print edition and a state-of-the-art digital version, either single issues or discounted annual subscriptions.
