There in lies the rub. The initial definitions for "sucessful wolf re-introduction" were 300 breeding pairs and I believe 1000 wolves in the three state area(MT,WY,ID)and federally approved management plans in each state , encompassing those animals. MT and ID had their plans approved but WY hasn"t. However the wolf was delisted in MT adn ID. There is a suit pending in MT that argues because WY doesn"t have an approved plan, no delisting should take place because the total three state region does not have approved management plans. The so called "environmentalists" are also saying 300 breeding pairs isn"t enough to maintain genetic diversity so they are now arguing for more breeding pairs. THe USFWS disagrees with their argument. I don"t know how the judge will rule but the technicallity is that all three states were supposed to have aapproved management plans before delisting and they don"t because WY"s plan isn"t approved. WY is also suing because they say they have the right to determine their own management plan. And so it goes. What everone agreed success looked like in 1995 is now being questioned by the "enviromentalists".
I say a deals a deal; sucess is 300 breeding pairs in the three state region is what was agreed to and no changing the rules now. There eare more wolves then what was agreed to (1500) and they are reproducing at a rate of 20% a year! MT and ID is hoping their hunting seasons will stem the tide and "educate" wolves not to go around humans and livestock. But a wolf has to eat and feed its young so when they run through all the deer and elk, in an area, livestock is next on the menu. And these so called "environmentalists" are supposed to be educated people! Maybe so, but they have no common sense and they are selfish and sef centered in their goals. To hell with the people who have to live with their definition of the environment!
