In December 2023, Colorado Parks and Wildlife released 10 wolves in Grand and Summit counties after voters approved to reintroduce the animals to the state in 2020.
The state releases monthly maps showing wolf activity, tracks depredations and compensates ranchers who file a claim following a depredation.
One reintroduced wolf has died, while two others have reproduced and been named the Copper Creek pack.

Colorado Parks and Wildlife has created a Collared Gray Wolf Activity Map that will help inform the public on where gray wolves have been in the past month. The map will be updated with new information on a monthly basis, produced on the fourth Wednesday of every month, and will reflect data for the prior month, give or take several days.
