Re: Colorado Prairie Dogs
You might want to call the department of conservation and ask if you will require a small game permit and it may make a difference depending on if you are shooting on public or private property. Colorado can be a pain that way. The way I read it anyone can shoot private property for pdogs (small game code #327) with landowner permission.
Re: Colorado Prairie Dogs
You ned to know that black tailed prairie dogs are protected in Colorado.
Re: Colorado Prairie Dogs
They were a few years ago but that changed around 2006. If you look at current small game regulations you'll find they are listed with seasons for public and private land.

Re: Colorado Prairie Dogs
The farthest south I go is limon wich is a ways east of the springs, I do 90 percent of my shooting within an hour of Greeley. I am sure you will find someplace though, we sure seem to have a bumper crop this year.
