Letter to an Editor: Release more wolves from captivity

5 hours ago

Letter to the editor:

Thank you for the May 9th article about captive breeding of Mexican gray wolves. As a local business owner, I am aware of the economic benefits wolves can bring. Around $36 million was generated each year by the reintroduction of wolves to Yellowstone. Add to this the significant ecological benefits of reintroducing wolves, and we have some excellent reasons to want the Mexican wolf reintroduction to succeed in Arizona.

Which means it's high time that Arizona Game and Fish stopped throwing up obstacles and that the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service start doing its job to recover el lobo, starting with releasing more wolves from captivity into the wild, which is where wild animals belong.
