I am extremely concerned by the prospect of Wyoming, Idaho and Montana managing Yellowstone grizzlies post-delisting. First, these states are well known to be anti-predator and their track record with wolves is alarming, to say the least. Further, how the states plan to track the population will artificially inflate numbers and make it extremely difficult to identify population plummeting. Finally,  grizzlies were originally listed on the Endangered Species list due to unsustainable trophy hunting permitted by the states. The states continued such hunting even though it was apparent the population was in jeopardy. Why should we trust the states with our iconic grizzlies?
