Wolf Delisting Update
Several very important issues regarding wolves have slipped by and not gotten posted here (due to the crush of other responsibilities). We apologize for our tardiness and oversights.
But, for the latest wolf news we once again recommend Wolf Crossing [here], the premier wolf issue website in Cyberspace. An important breaking wolf news we missed (but Wolf Crossing did not) is that the US Fish and Wildlife Service has re-opened a comment period for delisting Rocky Mountain wolves. The USFWS delisted (removed from the Endangered Species list) Rocky Mountain wolves but then were sued [here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here].
The new USFWS drift, in response to the preliminary ruling of Judge Molloy, is to go through the delisting process again. Wolf Crossing covered that bureaucratic move [here and here].
There are also some interesting and important posts about rabies, mountain lions, New Mexico, and wildlife politics at Wolf Crossing. Please check them out
