Ep 113: Chris Dorsey On Introducing Wolves To Colorado (Proposition 114)

Chris Dorsey is back on the show again today and, in addition to his work as a hunting TV show host and producer, Chris is also a resident of Colorado. If you haven’t heard, there’s actually an initiative on the ballot in Colorado this year regarding the potential introduction of wolves to the state. Well, Chris is concerned about the implications of this ballot initiative, both in Colorado and elsewhere in the country. Today, Chris and I are going to talk about this potential for introducing wolves to the state and why he thinks this is a bad idea.

Have you always dreamed of a great black bear hunt? Big Game Hunting Adventures offers some fantastic black bear hunts in Alberta that are a fantastic opportunity to take a really nice black bear.

We spend a great deal of time scouting prior to hunting season and carefully place our bait sites in only the absolute best locations. This means that, unlike many other bear hunting outfitters, every single one of our bait sites is a proven performer and gets a ton of bear traffic. You will likely see multiple bears each day and several dozen over the course of your hunt. 

Additionally, we have exclusive hunting rights in this area and book a limited number of hunters each year, which keeps the pressure on the bears very low. For this reason, we have high success rates on really nice bears.
