The rancher lost three more calves this spring, the latest on Memorial Day, according to a report posted this morning by The Colorado Sun.
Wild burros, forced off their home range to accommodate privately owned livestock, are now expected to protect them.
The story did not indicate if any of the burros had been attacked by wolves.
