Trail reminder: young animals need space, not rescue mps-post Mon, 05/25/2026 - 05:15 Image (Kiowa County Press) May is a sensitive time for Colorado wildlife, as many species are nesting, birthing young, or emerging from hibernation, and trail users are urged to give animals space and resist the urge to intervene.
