Colorado Confirms New Wolf Pup Litters
- Colorado Parks and Wildlife confirmed on Thursday that new wolf pups are being born and monitored across multiple den sites in the state.
- This follows the reintroduction of wolves starting in December 2023, when a mated pair produced a litter of five pups amid a voter-mandated restoration program.
- CPW staff monitor four den sites, but exact pup numbers remain uncertain due to denning behaviors and varied habitat making detections difficult.
- CPW reported 15 wolves were released in January 2025, with eight of 25 total reintroduced wolves having died, and conservationists celebrated the pups as an ecological milestone.
- The presence of wolf pups suggests growing wolf packs that could improve ecosystem health, while CPW continues efforts to help ranchers with non-lethal livestock protection funded partly by a special license plate program.
