Colorado

living there healthy for decades failed when a HOA of a neighboring Fort COllins subdivision took it upon themselves to hire someone to essentially drown them in their burrows.

I fought with both city and state DOW officials but got nowhere, even though the method was clearly illegal. City of FC and parks department SHOULD have had jurisdiction, but were all too happy to let the homeowners that were more than a 1/4 mile away decide.

I remain heartsick to this day and still monitor closely a larger colony closer to where I live and separated (fortunately) from the path by about 1000 yards and a deep ravine on one side and the raised railroad tracks on the other. If I EVER see anyone going out there to harm them, I WILL not WAIT to act. Fighting the system the "right" way in wildlife issues, seemingly only allows for those who don't give a damn to prevail.


I should add that I haven't read the article above as it just hurts TOO much.
