Wolf hunting in Wisconsin is on-hold after a federal judge in California said gray wolves should be placed under the endangered species act once again.
Judge Jeffrey White says states failed to show how opening-up wolf hunts would protect the wolves. The wolves were delisted from the endangered species act back in January of 2021. That led to a wolf hunt the next month. Environmentalists and activists have been fighting to stop the hunt ever since. The judge’s order means there will not be a wolf hunt this year, and won’t be any hunts in the future until another court changes its mind.
