New map informs Coloradans where wolves have been in the past month
DENVER. (KKTV) – A new map on the Colorado Parks and Wildlife’s (CPW) website allows people in Colorado to know where wolves have been throughout the state in the past month.
The map will be updated with new information released on the fourth Wednesday of every month. These maps collect information on the wolves from GPS collars worn by all 12 collared animals in Colorado. The data gathered from these collars allows CPW staff to learn where wolves have been, but not where wolves are at a current point in time, nor can they predict where wolves will go.
“By looking at the data, CPW staff can learn where wolves have been, but they cannot tell where wolves are at a current point in time, nor can they predict where the wolves will go,” a news release from CPW reads. “To protect the wolves, specific GPS data will not be shared.”
