The Past and Future of Wolves in Colorado

Lifelong Learning Lecture Series

Andrew Gulliford, Ph.D.

The University Press of Colorado recently published The Last Stand of the Pack, Critical Edition, which is a reprint of a 1929 book that describes the trapping, shooting, and killing of the last wolves in Colorado. Dr. Andrew Gulliford, professor of history and environmental studies at Fort Lewis College was a co-editor on that book. He will discuss not only the history of killing wolves in Colorado but also the possibility of re-introducing them or bringing them back to the Colorado wilderness.
