“Wolves are going back to court and what terrific news this is.
Alliance for the Wild Rockies, Friends of the Clearwater and WildEarth Guardians plan to file a lawsuit in US District Court, challenging the wolf delisting rider on Constitutional grounds.
Mike Garrity, Executive director of AWR, states: “We believe the wolf delisting rider violates the separation of powers in the U.S. Constitution.”
The three groups are being represented by Jay Tutchton, environmental law attorney.
Wolf advocates have felt powerless to help wolves since the wolf delisting rider was slipped into a must pass appropriations bill by Senator Jon Tester (D-MT) and Rep. Mike Simpson (R-ID). The budget bill was passed by the Senate with the wolf rider intact and signed into law by President Obama on April 16th, 2011. The USFWS had 60 days from that date to publish the final rule and it was announced yesterday, in the Lewistown Chronicle, that they intend to so this week.
From the Idaho Statesman:
“Wolves will be delisted in the Northern Rockies except Wyoming on Thursday, Interior Secretary Ken Salazar said.“
Please give generously to these environmental groups that are standing firm with wolves and are willing to go to court to defend them once again.

It was reported on the Wildlife News that Western Watersheds Project also expects “to file litigation challenging the wolf delisting rider.”
This is great news for wolves and wolf advocates.”

I do enjoy the manner in which you have presented this specific problem and it does indeed provide us a lot of fodder for thought. However, through what precisely I have experienced, I basically hope when the comments pack on that men and women keep on issue and in no way get started on a tirade involving some other news of the day. Yet, thank you for this exceptional point and while I do not really concur with it in totality, I respect your viewpoint.
Thanks for a respectful response qatar qatar.
