Sept. 29 - Federal Appeal Of NM Game Commission Wolf Decision Shot Down

Members of New Mexico’s Game Commission met this morning in Albuquerque to decide whether to allow the US Fish and game service to release more Mexican wolves into the New Mexico wilderness. Today’s decision was specifically to hear an appeal by the US Fish and Wildlife Service after the commission decided in 2011 not to release any more wolves as required under the Federal Endangered Species Act. As we hear from Mary Katherine Ray and Former Mayor David Coss, both of the Sierra Club Rio Grande Chapter, the appeal was denied.
