Government Leaves [Mexican] Wolf Pack in the Wild KUNM – FM radio

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service will not remove a wolf pack from the wild in southwestern New Mexico. Regional Director Benjamin Tuggle ruled last week that the Middle Fork Pack is highly valuable genetically to the Mexican gray wolf reintroduction program.

  1. “Caren Cowan of the New Mexico Cattle Growers Association says it is disappointing that the government is not protecting the livestock industry.”

    That’s news to me.

  2. “They have in separate incidents stepped into leghold traps set by unknown parties and were seen in the telemetry monitoring flights that the government carries out running with the leghold traps on limbs”

    That is pathetic. These traps should be banned for ‘recreational’ trapping. They are in many states but should be banned nationally. There is no reason, besides the trapping industries entrenched vice-grip on wildlife management depts. They are not humane.

  3. Ken, maybe she means that the government is not bending over backwards as far to protect the livestock industry.

    Peter, that group in Utah is going berserk.

  4. “leghold traps set by unknown parties”
    The population of Catron and Greenlee Counties is pretty small. I’d wager that less than 50% of that population are trappers. Most trappers have particular ways of setting their traps. It’s hard to believe that they don’t know or at least suspect who the trappers are.
