AZ Game and Fish Commission Raises Concernes With Wolf Proposal

The Arizona Game and Fish Commission voted unanimously this week to begin negotiation efforts with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife service. They’d like to resolve three concerns they have with the Draft Environmental Impact Statement on the Mexican Wolf Recovery Proposal.

The points of contention surround the lack of a few details like a cap on the number of wolves that will be allowed in Arizona and New Mexico.

According to a written statement, the commission will consider legal action if Fish and Wildlife does not address the issues.
