Wolves once roamed across Colorado but they were eradicated from the state by 1940 after conflicts with humans. After humans arrived and took away the large mammals the wolves once preyed on (?????), the predators began hunting livestock and they were "systematically eradicated," Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) said.

......

It is thought restoring wolves to Colorado will help improve the natural ecosystem and provide a means of controlling elk numbers. (!!!!!!!!!)


So much wrong with the mindset of Newsweek (and CPW), but I'm not surprised.
