U.S. Representative Tom Tiffany, in collaboration with Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.), has officially introduced a new bill, titled the Pet and Livestock Protection Act, aimed at removing gray wolves from the federal Endangered Species List nationwide. This legislation follows prior attempts, including the Trust the Science Act in 2022, which successfully passed the House but failed in the Senate. The new bill gains support from 30 co-sponsors, up from the 21 who backed the previous version.
Minnesota’s conservation needs a united front, and three prominent organizations—Safari Club International (SCI), the Minnesota Deer Hunters Association (MDHA), and Wolf Report—have joined forces to address one of the most pressing challenges facing the state. By working together, these organizations aim to push for state control of wolf management while advancing science-led conservation initiatives that benefit hunters, wildlife, and natural habitats.
With the incoming Trump administration signaling its intent to reassess federal wildlife protections, one question looms large for hunters and conservationists alike: Will the gray wolf be removed from the endangered species list? For years, the management and population of the gray wolf have been hot topics, particularly in states like Minnesota. The gray wolf's status as a protected species has tied the hands of state agencies, leaving hunters and local landowners caught in a web of federal regulations and contested lawsuits. Now, a new era may be on the horizon.
Efforts to ensure responsible wolf management are gathering steam as Wolf Report, in collaboration with the Minnesota Deer Hunters Association, amplifies its impact across Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Michigan. This growing movement underscores the pressing need for state-managed wolf control, and the momentum behind it demonstrates wide support from hunters, conservationists, and citizens alike.
Hunters, conservationists, and wildlife enthusiasts, we have exciting news! Wolf Report is expanding its reach, now covering not just Minnesota, but also Michigan and Wisconsin. This expansion marks a significant step forward in wolf monitoring and management, as it empowers more people to contribute to understanding and managing the wolf population across these states. Get involved in helping to make state-run Wolf Management a reality.
Wolf Report began as a local initiative in Minnesota, aiming to provide a comprehensive platform for tracking wolf sightings and interactions. The goal was to create a user-friendly system for hunters and residents to report their observations in real-time. With the overwhelming success and support from the community, the program has now expanded to cover Michigan and Wisconsin. This expansion allows for a broader understanding of the wolf population in the Great Lakes region.
