Colorado’s wolf plan ignores the one thing wolves don’t: borders

Over the last month, two of Colorado’s latest gray wolf transplants were killed after crossing the border into Wyoming.

Corner crossing, accessing public land from one piece to another where two parcels meet with two privately owned parcels without stepping foot on privately owned land, is now legal in the 10th Circuit’s six states: Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico, Utah, Oklahoma and Kansas.
