New Mexico wildlife officials say Mexican Wolf may resurge
From KRQE News:
NEW MEXICO (KRQE) – 50 years after a key wildlife law was enacted, officials in New Mexico said they’re seeing the return of an iconic animal. The National Park Service said the Mexican Wolf has traveled back to its original habitat, signaling the success of a program under the Endangered Species Act.
In 1973, the Endangered Species Act was signed into law, creating protections for threatened fish, wildlife, and plants. It gave states like New Mexico the ability to protect animals like the Mexican Wolf. Now, one particular wolf is helping restore hopes that the population will resurge.
