U.S. House passes bill to drop legal protections for gray wolves
By MATTHEW DALY Associated Press NOVEMBER 16, 2018 — 12:16PM

DAWN VILLELLA – ASSOCIATED PRESS
FILE - In this July 16, 2004, file photo, a gray wolf is seen at the Wildlife Science Center in Forest Lake, Minn. The Republican-controlled House has passed a bill to drop legal protections for gray wolves across the lower 48 states, reopening a lengthy battle over the predator species.

WASHINGTON — The Republican-controlled House passed a bill Friday to drop legal protections for gray wolves across the lower 48 states, reopening a lengthy battle over the predator species.

Long despised by farmers and ranchers, wolves were shot, trapped and poisoned out of existence in most of the U.S. by the mid-20th century. Since securing protection in the 1970s, wolves have bounced back in the western Great Lakes states of Michigan, Minnesota and Wisconsin, as well as in the Northern Rockies and Pacific Northwest.

About 5,000 wolves live in the lower 48 states, occupying less than 10 percent of their historic range.

The Fish and Wildlife Service is reviewing the wolf's status and is expected to declare they've recovered sufficiently to be removed from protection under the Endangered Species Act.

The House bill would enshrine that policy in law and restrict judicial review of listing decisions. The measure was approved, 196-180, and now goes to the Senate, where prospects are murkier.

The bill's chief sponsor, Rep. Sean Duffy, R-Wis., said farmers in Wisconsin and other states are "one step closer to having the legal means to defend their livestock from gray wolves."

States should be responsible for managing wolf populations, "not Washington bureaucrats," Duffy said.


Environmental groups and many Democrats slammed the bill as a last-ditch effort by Republicans to push a pro-rancher agenda after losing control of the House in this month's midterm elections.

"This final, pathetic stab at wolves exemplifies House Republicans' longstanding cruelty and contempt for our nation's wildlife," said Brett Hartl, government affairs director for the Center for Biological Diversity, an Arizona-based environmental group.

"The American people overwhelmingly support the Endangered Species Act and the magnificent animals and plants it protects," Hartl said. "We don't expect to see these disgraceful anti-wildlife votes next year under Democratic control of the House."

Livestock industry associations representing ranchers who have to contend with wolves scaring and attacking cattle and sheep supported the bill. They said in a letter to Congress that wolf populations have recovered to the extent that the animal would have been removed from the endangered species list if not for "activist litigants" who "used the judicial system to circumvent sound science and restore full ESA protections to these predators."

A spokeswoman for the Fish and Wildlife Service said the agency is completing a review of the wolves' status in the lower 48 states and expects to make a recommendation in coming months. The agency did not take a position on the House bill.

Osky, the bill we had been discussing in earlier threads passed in the house today. I was slow on updating them lol.

I believe the Senate will find a way to pass it. In my opinion, the House was the biggest hurdle.

I'm shocked at this point. I'm wondering how many wanna be hero judges are salivating at the chance to be the one who derails it.

If I recall not long ago didn't Klobuchar say she was in favor of delisting? Then again it was the re election season.

She did but now she has presidential aspirations, so who knows. Any support I had for her really slid during the Kavanaugh hearings.

I will say one thing Representative Peterson(D) from my district has probably done as much or more work to delist the wolves than any other politician.

Osky, here is some testimony by the esteemed Congresswoman from the metro. McCollum needs to go.

Our Governor-elect Walz chose not to vote on the bill.

9r, what do you think that crap for brains would do with a real brain if she had one?

She sure heralds science and experts for putting the wolves ON the endangered list but fails to mention those same sources have stated the wolves have more than recovered and more than doubled what was hoped for and established as a safe number.

I don't know but as much as I love it here in MN, if it gets much worse I may have to pack up and move.

The upcoming legislative sessions are going to be a battle.
