Gray wolves in Canada.

Reps. Lauren Boebert (R-CO-04) and Tom Tiffany’s (R-WI-07) Pet and Livestock Protection Act, which would delist the gray wolf from the Endangered Species Act list, advanced to the House floor on April 9.

The bill passed the House Natural Resources Committee on a vote of 24-17. “The damage to pets, livestock, and wildlife from an unmanaged wolf population can no longer be ignored,” Tiffany said. “It’s time to take the next step, delist them, and let the people closest to the gray wolf manage their population levels.”
