Groups Sue To Get Gray Wolves Back on Endangered Species List

A dozen environmental groups sued the federal government Monday in an attempt to reverse a decision to remove gray wolves in the northern Rocky Mountains from the endangered species list.

Since the delisting went into effect March 28, at least 35 wolves have been killed in Idaho, Montana and Wyoming.

"That's more than one a day under the state plans," said Louisa Willcox, a senior wildlife advocate for the Natural Resources Defense Council in Livingston, Mont.

"We believe that is excessive and we'll wind up right back on the brink of extinction if this continues."
