Mexican gray wolf protections challenged in Congress
From KOAT.com:
Protection for Mexican gray wolves under the federal Endangered Species Act is facing opposition from ranchers who say the danger this protected species poses to their cattle threatens their livelihood.
The controversy has made it to Congress, where Arizona Rep. Paul Gosar introduced the Enhancing Safety for Animals Act, which would delist the Mexican gray wolf and separate the populations in the U.S. and Mexico, allowing for proper management of the species. The bill is supported by the New Mexico Cattle Growers Association.
