WASHINGTON, D.C. (RFD-TV) — House lawmakers are making moves in the fight against farm predators, passing the Pet and Livestock Protection Act, which would delist the gray wolf under the Endangered Species Act.
Gray wolves have been on the endangered species list on and off since 1974, and the Pubic Lands Council estimates their population has grown 300 percent over the last 50 years. They were briefly delisted in 2020, but a federal court overturned that rule in 2022.
Leaders from the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association (NCBA) say restoring the 2020 rule would give certainty back to cattle producers, warning that wolves are causing them financial and emotional losses.
The bill now moves on to the Senate for consideration.
