Fish and Wildlife Service proposing changes to wolf program
Albuquerque, New Mexico (AP)
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is proposing to change some of the rules for a program that began putting Mexican gray wolves back into the wild in southwestern New Mexico and southeastern Arizona nearly 10 years ago. Federal biologists began releasing wolves in 1998 to re-establish the species in part of its historic range after it had been hunted to the brink of extinction in the early 1900s. Ranchers have consistently complained about wolves killing their livestock, while conservationists have criticized the program’s management – specifically a policy that requires wolves to be removed if they’re linked to three livestock killings. |
