California Judge Rules to Relist Gray Wolf Under ESA

Statement

Yesterday, a California Judge ruled to again relist the gray wolf under the Endangered Species Act.

"Minnesota is a success story for the gray wolf, where populations have maintained well above both federal and state recovery goals for decades. The ESA is intended to be a tool for recovery, not permanent protected status for animals that are now thriving," said Rep. Michelle Fischbach. "I am extremely disappointed in this decision and call on the Biden Administration to, again, return management of this species to the states."
