Push to reinstate protection for nation's gray wolves

Good to see a coalition of organizations challenging the outgoing Trump administration's heavy-handed, heavily-ideological and science-free removal of endangered species protection 

Wisconsin is killing its wolves

for the country's gray wolves:

The action was in response to the Jan. 4 delisting of the species by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, which allowed state agencies to resume management of wolves, including the possibility for hunting, trapping and other lethal control measures.

Anticipating the federal move, Wisconsin is preparing a state-sanctioned hunt. Some current and recent history that suggests this is a bad idea, and in the wrong hands, is here.
