[Oregon] Rep. Bentz cites livestock losses in push to delist wolves
From RogueValleyTimes.com:
Rep. Cliff Bentz, who represents Eastern Oregon and Jackson and Josephine counties in Congress, warned that the growing population of gray wolves is an increasing threat to livestock and the meat industry and called for their removal from federal endangered species protections. Speaking on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives last week, Bentz said the protections for wolves are restricting livestock owners’ ability to defend their herds. The compensation they receive from lost cattle is inadequate, he added.
