Trump plans to revoke wolf protections
The Trump administration intends to end the protection currently granted to wolves as an endangered species. This decision follows the president's request to assess whether the gray and Mexican wolves meet the criteria for lifting protections and returning them to the list of non-protected species. Estimates indicate that the wolf populations have decreased from over 250,000 in the past to approximately 7,600 gray wolves today, while the Mexican wolf population reached around 317 by the end of 2025. This move is part of efforts to reduce restrictions on wolf hunting, prompting criticism from environmental organizations concerned about the potential impact on endangered species and ecological balance.
