Federal officials have closed public comment on plans for how the government should restore grizzly bears to the Bitterroot ecosystem.

Montana’s estimated wolf population has decreased again following the 2022 hunting and trapping season. However, hunters didn’t kill all the wolves state regulators would have allowed.

One side effect of Montana’s growing population is more conflicts between people and wildlife. To meet these new challenges, wildlife managers, and the academic programs that trained, them are adapting.

The plan lays out population goals and a management plan should the federally protected Yellowstone grizzly be delisted in the future.

A group of Democratic lawmakers on Thursday urged the Biden administration to enact emergency protections for gray wolves in the U.S. West in response to Republican-backed state laws that make it easier to kill the predators.

A state committee dedicated to regulating Montana’s wildlife is expected this week to finalize regulations that could expand wolf hunting to levels not seen in Montana in decades.
