Inside Colorado's Troubling Wolf Reintroduction:
In this explosive Through the Gates episode, fifth-generation ranchers Tim Ritschard and Doug Bruchez expose the truth behind the state’s wolf reintroduction fallout.This is the raw truth that chronicles exactly what has happened on the ground; from mass depredations, the total betrayal of a management plan, biologists and ranchers being kept in the dark and a political agenda determined to dismantle the Western lifestyle and wildlife management.
💥 This is a real-world experience and timeline for those impacted by ballot box biology. Whether you voted for wolf reintroduction or not, this conversation shares the graphic reality of agenda driven wildlife management.
🎯 Inside This Episode:
- Firsthand accounts of livestock losses from the Copper Creek wolf pack.
- What Colorado Parks & Wildlife didn’t tell ranchers—and how they found out the hard way.
- A timeline of reintroduction and kills including the mass killing of over 33 calves.
- The high human cost: stress, health issues, and broken trust.
- How wildlife professionals and ranchers are both being hung out to dry by CPW brass and higher level politicians.
- Why Colorado Parks and Wildlife ignored their own wolf management plan.
- The emotional, economic, and ecological toll of ballot-box biology
- Why Colorado ranchers say the wolves are just pawns in a political game.
- Why compensation laws don’t begin to cover the losses
