A bill to require the Director of the United States Fish and Wildlife Service to update the Post-delisting Monitoring Plan for the Western Great Lakes Distinct Population Segment of the Gray Wolf, and for other purposes.
This bill requires the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to update its 2008 monitoring plan for gray wolves in the Northern Great Lakes Region (Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Michigan's Upper Peninsula) within one year of enactment. It mandates the Director to consult with a newly established advisory committee - including tribal leaders, state officials, and wildlife experts - when revising the plan. Once updated, the Secretary of the Interior must issue a rule formally removing the gray wolf population in this specific region from the Endangered Species Act protections. The bill affects gray wolves in these three states and requires federal and state agencies to coordinate under the new monitoring framework.
