Colorados Wild Cat Debate

This video outlines the mission of a conservation movement dedicated to **ending the trophy hunting and commercial trapping** of mountain lions and bobcats in Colorado. The organization argues that current hunting practices are **cruel and unsporting**, specifically criticizing the use of dogs to corner animals and the financial exploitation of wildlife for fur and trophies. By highlighting the **ecological benefits** of these predators, the source explains how wild cats naturally manage prey populations and limit the spread of disease. Furthermore, the material suggests that hunting actually **increases human-wildlife conflict** by disrupting the social structures of the feline populations. The movement emphasizes that prohibiting these hunts would **protect orphaned kittens** while still allowing for the removal of individual cats that pose a legitimate threat to public safety or livestock. Ultimately, the source serves as a call to action for citizens to support **humane wildlife management** over commercialized killing. BIG CAT TV is a close look into the wild cat conservation efforts we support, and the exotic feline residents of Big Cat Rescue who we now support at Turpentine Creek Wildlife Refuge.
