Gray wolf loses Endangered Species Act protections

Federal wildlife officials are removing the gray wolf from the U.S. Endangered Species Act list, saying the wolf population — an estimated 6,000 roaming the continental U.S. — has recovered and the animal no longer requires federal protection.

Hope so.

Well about half of that 6000 are here in Mn. 

The PETA folks are going to lose their minds! Get ready for the blocking Law Suits.

I thought it was a federal court injunction that kept states from managing their own populations the last time.

How does this affect the courts ruling?

"Critics are calling the move premature, though, and are already promising to sue"

not 100% sure but i thought i read that it will be turned over to each state to control!!!!

[LPS]

That is the way I heard it too.  Feds turn it over to the states.

Like in 2011, states have control. Problem now is our current Governor is opposed to any wolf control in Minnesota. Last time the state of California led the charge to get the delisting overturned.  I suspect they will try once again.

It doesn't matter who's controlling it. The crazies will still try and sue to shut it down. If only a few of their kitties and poodles got chewed up. Then they would be all for taking a few out!
