Rainbow trout revival underway in Colorado?
ASPEN, Colorado — For the first time since whirling disease decimated most naturally reproducing rainbow trout populations in Colorado more than a decade ago, a new strain of the sport fish has reproduced naturally. The breakthrough took place in ponds along the Fryingpan River above Basalt. A second population of the new cross-breed of trout has spawned successfully in the Gunnison River, according to state wildlife officials, giving rise to the hope that wild, self-sustaining rainbow trout populations will thrive once more in Colorado rivers.
Wolf Reported in Rocky Mountain National Park
ROCKY MOUNTAIN NATIONAL PARK, Colorado — Rocky Mountain National Park officials say a recent report of a possible wolf sighting is credible, but they say it's difficult to be sure without more evidence. Ranger Jack Dinsmoor said Friday that two experienced park volunteers reported seeing what looked like a wolf on December 4th. They didn't get a photo, but large paw prints were later found in the area.
Easier For Western States To Kill Wolves
BILLINGS, Mont. — A new federal rule would allow state game agencies to kill endangered gray wolves that prey on wildlife in the Northern Rockies. An estimated 1,500 Wolves in Idaho, Wyoming and Montana are scheduled to come off the endangered species list in coming weeks, which would allow public hunting of the predators for the first time in decades.
Colorado Company Recalls Popcorn
The federal Food and Drug Administration says Rocky Mountain Popcorn Co. has voluntarily recalled more than 1,600 bags of ready-to-eat low-fat caramel popcorn. The FDA said Monday an ingredient was found to have a trace amount of tree nuts, which could cause a reaction in anyone allergic to such nuts. The agency said no allergic reactions have been reported. The recall covers green, nine-ounce bags with UPC number 10449 32050 and with a manufacturing code less than D1231xx.
