Thousands of elk, deer and antelope have been migrating out of northwestern Colorado due to hard winter conditions and many have died of starvation, forcing state wildlife managers to consider cutting the number of hunting licenses they issue.

Thousands of elk, deer and antelope have been migrating out of northwestern Colorado due to hard winter conditions and many have died of starvation, forcing state wildlife managers to consider cutting the number of hunting licenses they issue by more than 40%.

Semi-trucks whizzing east from Utah into Colorado along U.S. 40 plowed through antelope herds and killed more than ten on at least four occasions, CPW officials said. “That’s what makes these decisions the hardest,” CPW’s area wildlife manager Bill de Vergie said in an agency statement. “It’s something we had to do.”

Two pronghorn-vehicle collisions stood out as especially deadly, CPW officials said. On Jan. 14, a semi-truck rolling east near Dinosaur hit 35 pronghorn on the road. On Jan. 19, a pickup truck on a county road near Craig hit 18 more.
