PROJECT COYOTE is asking all California residents to join them in Sacramento on Wednesday Oct 2 to demand that USFW not delist Wolves across the USA......................."The rebound of gray wolves in the western Great Lakes and northern Rocky Mountains has been a boon for local economies, wildlife enthusiasts, and the ecosystems of these areas that have benefitted from the return of this keystone predator...................... Studies in Yellowstone National Park found that the presence of wolves benefitted a myriad of species from pronghorn antelope, to songbirds, to beaver and fish................... While there is much to be proud of, there remains considerable progress to be made towards wolf recovery in the lower 48 states................. In particular, we are concerned that the same prejudice towards wolves that led to their extirpation across nearly the entire coterminous United States is still present today and, not only is threatening to undo the gains achieved in the northern Rocky Mountains and western Great Lakes, but will prevent their recovery in additional areas.................. We believe that federal protection continues to be necessary to ensure that wolf recovery is allowed to proceed in additional parts of the country." ~Congressional letter to FWS Director Dan Ashe, signed by 52 members of Congress
