A coalition of ag groups recently filed notice that they will appeal a judge’s denial of their motion to intervene in three gray wolf cases in the Northern District of California.
The Gray Wolf Agriculture Coalition is made up of the American Farm Bureau Federation, American Sheep Industry Association, National Cattlemen’s Beef Association and Public Lands Council (PLC).
Their appeal will move through the 9th Circuit Court, and PLC said “we are hopeful that the higher court will restore our ability to participate in a full-throated defense of the gray wolf delisting in the lower 48 states.”
In the meantime, PLC added, the groups will continue to participate in the cases through amicus briefs and supporting existing intervenors and partners.
