DENVER — The Gunnison County Stockgrowers’ Association and Colorado Cattlemen’s Association dismissed their own lawsuit against the state and federal governments regarding wolves, according to court documents filed Friday.

They dismissed their lawsuit “with prejudice,” which means they cannot re-file. The groups, however, could file a new lawsuit with new claims in the future, 9NEWS legal analyst Scott Robinson said.

The organizations filed their lawsuit last week arguing the federal government did not properly follow the law. It also asked a judge to stop Colorado from trying to capture and release wolves until the lawsuit got resolved. The judge denied that request, and the state reintroduced five wolves this week.

Oregon gave Colorado permission to capture up to 10 wolves. The state has informed the public that CPW released five wolves already in Grand County.
