Parks and Wildlife said Monday the wolf had a severe leg injury and was in poor health before he was captured.

The move comes after the animals repeatedly attacked livestock and marks an early stumble in the first year of the voter-driven reintroduction. The bid to capture them goes against Colorado's wolf management plan that was adopted last year.

Losing the species led to big spikes in elk and deer populations, which have overgrazed entire ecosystems.

Hatred from both those protecting him and those condemning him has fallen on the backs of those who had nothing to do with it.

Today on In The NoCo, KUNC’s Scott Franz discusses recent wolf milestones and tension on the Western Slope, and whether wolves might one day become a tourist attraction.

This week one of the wolves turned up dead in Larimer County. Federal wildlife officials are investigating but they say it appears the wolf died of natural causes. The Colorado Sun reporter Tracy Ross joined KUNC's Michael Lyle, Jr. to provide an update on the situation.
