Things have gone from bad to worse for wolves in Greater Yellowstone and the Northern Rockies.
Today, the Bush/Cheney Administration is stripping these amazing animals of vital federal protections,
officially opening the door to the shooting, trapping, and killing of up to 1,200 wolves.
Under existing state management plans - plans approved by the Bush Administration
all but 300 hundred wolves could be killed. That’s 80% of the wild wolves in Greater Yellowstone
and the Northern Rockies!
Idaho officials want to use aerial gunning to kill wolves in their state.
Wyoming agencies have left the door open to the use of traps and poison to eliminate wolves.
And officials in both states and Montana have proposed wolf hunts.
