Environment Planet Possible India bets its energy future on solar—in ways both small and big. In the northern Rocky Mountains, the Center was part of several successful lawsuits that delayed the removal of federal protections for wolves from April , when first promulgated by the Bush administration, until May , when protections were finally though still prematurely removed through an infamous congressional rider.
Our legal efforts helped to allow the wolf population to grow by 1, animals during those eight years, from to 1, Now that management has been turned over to state wildlife managers, we fight to protect wolves from trophy hunting and other exploitation. The Center and allies in Colorado submitted petitions to place a wolf-reintroduction initiative on the ballot, and voters passed the measure in the election.
Colorado Parks and Wildlife is now developing a wolf restoration and management plan to start wolf releases in western Colorado by Dec. Separately, three wolf pups were born in northern Colorado, the first wild litter of wolves known in Colorado since the s.
Reintroduction is still vital, and the Center is advocating for the plan to retain full protections for all wolves in the state. The Center and allies are fighting for maximum protection of the growing but still vulnerable population of wolves in the West Coast states of Washington, Oregon and California.
Besides being especially vulnerable to disease, vehicle collisions, and illegal shootings, these wolves are threatened by potential resumption of state-sanctioned hunts. In these efforts paid off, with DNA-test results showing at least one wild wolf roaming across Maine. The potential for wolves to return to the Northeast is one more reason federal protection should not be stripped from these animals.
We know, for example, that returning wolves to ecosystems sets off a chain of events that benefits many species, including songbirds and beavers that gain from a return of streamside vegetation — which thrives in the absence of browsing elk that must move more often to avoid wolves — and pronghorn and foxes aided by wolves' control of coyote populations.
Establishing wolf populations in remaining suitable habitat in the Northeast, southern Rocky Mountains, Southwest, Pacific Northwest, California and elsewhere would secure a future for wolves and allow them to play their valuable ecological role in more of their former home territory.
