Proposed Settlement To Delist Wolves
Posted: Sun Mar 20, 2011 1:56 pm
I just read an article about a proposed settlement agreement where wolves will be delisted in Idaho and Montana and the more powerful wildlife advocacy groups have agreed to not sue for 3 years. Management will be returned to the states but the feds will "closely monitor" the populations in the two states. This is the same thing thats been going on, sue-delist-sue-delist-the states get f'd-sue-delist. "Environmental groups said they settled in part to avoid congress becoming involved in the issue." Keep the pressure on to amend the ESA and delist wolves for good.
The article claimed there were 700 wolves in Idaho, I've seen 850 several times and have been seeing 850 for several years. Apparently if you pretend they don't reproduce, then they don't. I heard a rumor that a Montana biologist addmitted the only way to control wolf populations is by aerial hunting because when we hunt one, two will replace it.
Keep the pressue on to FIX THE PROBLEM and not the effects! Support HR 509 and S249 and pass the word on to everyone you know!
