Episode #233 Lizzy Pennock - Ruling on ESA Protections for Wolves in the Northern Rocky Mountains
from The Wolf Connection
Lizzy Pennock has been the Carnivore Coexistence Attorney for WIldEarth Guardians for 4 years. Earlier in August, a federal district court in Missoula ruled that the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service violated the Endangered Species Act (ESA) when it determined that gray wolves in the western United States do not warrant federal protections. Lizzy went into great detail describing Senior District Judge Donald Molloy's reasons for ruling in this manner. We went on to discuss at length the definition of wolves range, discrepancies in population numbers, state management issues, inconsistencies within the USFWS arguments, and what this ruling could mean for the future of wolves in the western United States.WildEarth Guardians WebsiteWildEarth Guardians Press ReleaseJude Donald Molloy Ruling@wildearthguardians@centerforbiodiv@thewolfconnectionpod
