The Colorado Division of Wildlife (DOW) will hold a public meeting in Wellington to gather input on pronghorn (often called antelope) herd management in DAUs PH 33 and 36, which comprises Game Management Units 7, 8, 9 and 191. The meeting will be held from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., Aug. 8 at the Leeper Community Center, 3800 Wilson Ave., Wellington.
“Pronghorn hunting is a popular activity in this region,” said Dave Clarkson, area wildlife manager for the DOW. “We’d like to ensure we are managing pronghorn to the best of our abilities, using input and information from the public who enjoy having these animals as part of our landscape.”
The Colorado Division of Wildlife is the state agency responsible for managing wildlife and its habitat, as well as providing wildlife related recreation. The Division is funded through hunting and fishing license fees, federal grants and Colorado Lottery proceeds through Great Outdoors Colorado.
