Last gasp Bush plan to kill Yellowstone wolves

Posted by Chris Clarke on November 11, 2008

What is it with these psychotic Republicans and their wolf-killing fetish?

Via Tmorph:

The Bush Administration is determined to ram through a new wolf-killing plan before leaving office. This dangerous scheme could allow the Northern Rockies states to kill nearly 1,000 gray wolves in the first year alone. Please submit an Official Citizen Comment telling the Interior Department to maintain strong federal protection for wolves.

The plan, concocted in a year in which Yellowstone’s wolf population is seriously threatened by disease, could push the wolves to the edge of extirpation. Take action here.
