Trump signs order to remove endangered species protection for grey wolves

President Trump signed an executive order to remove endangered species protections for grey wolves and Mexican wolves, potentially allowing ranchers to kill them to protect livestock. The order directs the Interior Secretary to determine within 90 days whether the wolf populations have recovered enough to be removed from the endangered species list, though conservation groups argue this could undermine decades of recovery efforts. Environmental advocates counter that wolf attacks on livestock are rare and have minimal financial impact on ranchers.
