U.S. Continues Protection for Over 2,000 Rocky Mountain Grizzly Bears in Greater Yellowstone for 20 Years Under Endangered Species Act
Jan 8, 2025, 08:22 PM
The U.S. government has announced that it will continue to protect over 2,000 Rocky Mountain grizzly bears, maintaining their status under the Endangered Species Act. This decision comes amid ongoing debates regarding the management of the species, with some political figures arguing that the grizzly bear population in the Greater Yellowstone area has been stable for two decades. Critics of the Biden administration, including certain senators, assert that the decision reflects a prioritization of political interests over scientific evidence. They advocate for local experts in Wyoming to manage grizzly populations rather than federal bureaucrats.
