Money from across the country pours into Colorado’s fight over big cat hunting

Late into the campaign season for Colorado’s November 2024 election, a second issue committee has emerged opposing Proposition 127, a measure that seeks to ban the hunting of mountain lions, bobcats and lynx.

The committee filed with Colorado’s Secretary of State on Oct. 5 under the name Western Heritage Conservation Alliance.

It joins two other issue committees fighting over the measure: Cats Aren’t Trophies, a citizen group that petitioned to get Proposition 127 on the ballot, and Colorado’s Wildlife Deserve Better, which also opposes it.

As of Oct. 28, the Western Heritage Conservation Alliance has amassed $1.6 million in donations from two donors. It has spent $450,000 on advertising.
