The Colorado Department of Agriculture (CDA) has partnered with state and federal agencies to offer livestock producers training on coexistence with wolves.
These sessions focus on non-lethal deterrent methods, such as range riding, carcass disposal and the use of guardian dogs, as well as a flexible grant program. The initiative aims to prepare producers for the spring calving and lambing season.
Upcoming training events are scheduled in Meeker, CO, on Nov. 4 and Glenwood Springs, CO, on Nov. 5. For questions about the training, stockmanship clinics or grants, contact Dustin Shiflett, CDA non-lethal conflict reduction program manager, at dustin.shiflett@state.co.us or call 720-902-1222.
