Gray wolves get second chance at federal protections
From CourthouseNews.com:
(CN) — Conservationists applauded a Tuesday ruling by a federal judge in Montana that struck down a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service decision that denied Endangered Species Act protections for gray wolves in the West.
“With this court ruling comes the hope of true recovery for wolves across the West,” Collette Adkins, carnivore conservation director at the Center for Biological Diversity, said in a statement. “The judge rightly found that the Fish and Wildlife Service’s unambitious view of recovery violates the Endangered Species Act.”
