The ballot initiative to prohibit the hunting of mountain lions, lynx and bobcats in Colorado has officially qualified for the November 2024 ballot.
The proponents of Proposed Initiative #91, “Prohibit Trophy Hunting,” gathered 187,147 signatures. After reviewing a 5% random sample of the signatures, the Elections Division of the Secretary of State’s office projected the number of valid signatures to be greater than 110% of the total number of required signatures to make the ballot.
“Colorado voters will have an opportunity to halt the inhumane and needless killing of mountain lions and bobcats for their heads and beautiful fur coats,” said Samantha Miller, Cats Aren’t Trophies campaign manager, in a news release.
