Colorado may lose April Mtn Season

[camelcluch]

With no vote or any input from biologists, The commission is wanting to close the April lion season. Howl For Wildlife are you around?? Sheesh this getting horrible.

I'm a member of HOWL and will be happy to help if I can as a NR. Yeah, I feel bad for the people that live on the western slope.

I can’t seem to find anything on this - mind sharing a link?

 

[camelcluch]

There is not a link. I received the information but can’t say where. Just no vote and closed. Commission decided.

Here's the link where they redlined all the April dates in 2024 when the season "starts" in several units.

Here's the reasoning https://cpw.state.co.us/Documents/Commission/2024/January/Item.18-Memo.pdf

Very interesting. I was told it will probably be statewide soon.

 

[camelcluch]

Possibly. Kind of a waiting game at this point.

You would think they would want to have the lions thinned out so the wolves would have something to eat.
