CPW Wolf Report

Posted on 31 August 2026

CPW is currently monitoring four reproducing packs in Northwest Colorado. Wolf pups in Colorado are approx. 4 months old at this time of year and have begun to move short distances with other pack members. They now use rendezvous sites instead of the den area, where adults provision them with meat.

Biologists are actively monitoring these packs through several methods like game cameras and GPS collars to track the composition of each pack, gather minimum pup counts, and understand movement.

A highlighted watershed indicates that at least one GPS collared wolf was within that watershed during the month. It does not mean that wolves have traveled throughout the entire watershed or currently occupy it. 

Please note this map only reflects the activity of collared wolves and does not capture the activity of uncollared wolves. CPW’s Wildlife Damage Specialists and wildlife managers are working closely with producers to implement various conflict minimization tools and techniques on operations with localized wolf activity nearby.
