TT,
Believe it or not we have snowshoe hares here,
and the Lynx has been reintroduced over the last ten yearswith several relocated to the South of us on the Uncompagre Plateau which is just a few miles away.
They have recently been bringing in moose from out of State to repopulate the extinct populations on the Grand mesa as well.
The Green peace tree huggers have been sneaking in a bunch of wolves and such that are listed on the extinct list for years and have the ranchers all in an uproar lately. (This also includes a couple Grizzly sightings that are kind of scary).
The over population of the coyotes was started in the 70s when tree huggers thought there should be a ban on hunting them because they were under controll and hard to find. now they are coming up and taking the pets out of yards, as well as attacking the stock in the fields. Some have even confronted folks in their own yards in broad daylight.
This is something that had to be addressed.
I only hope that a good furrier will get a hold of the pelts and make this man's effort worth while.
And not a waste of time.
Thom
