The battle to prevent the expansion of the range of the endangered - TopicsExpress



          

The battle to prevent the expansion of the range of the endangered Mexican gray wolf took another turn this week with word of a lawsuit by the Arizona Game and Fish Department. Arizona Game and Fish filed its lawsuit threat this week in an attempt to block a proposed expansion of the 15-year-old federal recovery plan for the Mexican gray wolves. One of the major reasons USFWS cited for expanding the recovery area was to connect the isolated reintroduced packs in Arizona with the wolves’ historic range in Mexico’s Sierra Madres. Mexico is also attempting to reintroduce wolves there, but with less success. Arizona Game and Fish officials argued that the federal government shouldn’t finalize any change in the wolf reintroduction program until it has a detailed, coordinated, bi-national plan that includes Mexico. m.paysonroundup/news/2015/jan/12/state-vows-lawsuit-stop-wolf-plan/?templates=mobile
