Governor Brad Little of Idaho has signed Bill SB 1211 into law, allowing for the slaughter of 90% of Idaho's grey wolf population. This means that in upwards of 1, 300 of the 1, 500 grey wolves within the state will be executed and by any means necessary, which includes trapping, snares, aerial kills, and wildlife killing contests. 

For 45 years, conservation efforts to rehabilitate grey wolves were in place with the grey wolf guaranteed safety under the Endangered Species Act. One of former President Donald Trump's many blunders in his last few months in office was allowing for grey wolves to be delisted. Almost immediately after being delisted, there were contests in place to kill them and evidently, Governor Little is willing to disregard the efforts, resources, and time invested in the recovery of the grey wolf. 

This story really shows us that not everyone is on board with conservation. It shows us that there are still people who don't understand the importance of every species on this planet and what they contribute to a healthy ecosystem. It shows us that there are still so many people out there who could care less about the survival of a species. Most of all, it shows us how eager we are as a species to kill and destroy other species. To think that grey wolves were only delisted this year and there are already multiple states that are happily shooting and killing them, it's sickening and completely disregards the efforts of conservationists who worked tirelessly for 45 years to bring grey wolves back from the brink of extinction.
