To purchase the 'Born to be Wild' license plate you pay a one time $25 fee for the highway users tax fund, an annual $50 fee to the CPW cash fund, and a onetime $25 fee for the Colorado DRIVES vehicle services account. 
So, for the first year, the plate will cost you $100.
Every subsequent year you will only pay $50 annually. 
It’s that annual $50 that will make all the difference for Colorado’s wolves and ranchers.

Rocky Mountain Wolf Project

The 'Born to be Wild' License Plate, spearheaded by the Rocky Mountain Wolf Project, will support programs to prevent conflicts with gray wolves through non-lethal means. 

The $50 annual fee is expected to provide crucial funding to Colorado Parks & Wildlife to fund non-lethal conflict reduction programs and tools. The plate will also support research to make those tools more effective. 

​None of the money from license plate fees may be used for the lethal control of wolves or for compensation for wolf depredation.
