Dozens of American Indian tribes are demanding the Biden administration enact emergency protections for gray wolves. Groups sent a letter to the interior secretary asking her to place wolves back on the endangered species list on an emergency basis.

Groups representing the tribes sent a letter to Interior Secretary Deb Haaland asking her to act quickly on an emergency petition they filed in May to relist the wolf as endangered or threatened. They also asked Haaland, a member of Laguna Pueblo in New Mexico and the first Native American to lead a Cabinet agency, to relist the wolf on an emergency basis for 240 days, ensuring immediate protection.

The letter doesn’t name any specific states or polices. But Izzy Baird, a spokeswoman for Relist Wolves Coalition, which has been working with tribal nations on the issue, noted in an email thatduring that state’s spring season;ADVERTISEMENT “Had either the Trump or Biden Administrations consulted tribal nations, as treaty and trust responsibilities require, they would have heard that as a sacred creature, the wolf is an integral part of the land-based identity that shapes our communities, beliefs, customs and traditions,” the letter said. “The land, and all that it contains, is our temple.”

Such beautiful, intelligent animals. They only “ harm” the ranchers. Just don’t eat beef. Better for the planet.

At first glance, I saw 'gay' wolves and just had to read the article.
