[|Red Wolf Protections Could Disappear, Along With the Species] Fox News Accessed on November 30, 2017 Red Wolf http://thetruthaboutredwolves.com/

__** Summary **__ In 1980 Red Wolves went extinct in the wild. Soon after the fish and wildlife service created a program to reintroduce Red Wolves, but the project is failing with only 25 Red Wolves still in the wild. Since the program is failing the senate will rule to end it in 2018, though ending this program would mean declaring Red Wolves extinct. The Red Wolf is native to North Carolina and is the only wolf native to the North America and beyond that it is the most endangered canid on the plant reports zoo officials that are also working to prevent their extinction by having a breeding program currently with 18 wolves. Though these wolves have been reportedly "terrorizing north Carolinians" as stated by senator Thom Tillis.

We have been learning about extinction and human impacts on extinction rates, but for the most part we have been talking about forging exotic animal. This is even more relevant because not only is it a direct result of human impact and environmental policy failure but it is right in our back yard. This problem also deals with the endangered species act and the fish and wildlife service which we are currently learning about.

__** Opinion **__ America dabbles and criticizes other countries for not protecting there endangered species enough, but we have one of our native species going extinct and we are pushing to end their protection. America should be a role model in conservation but again we are not protection one of our own native species. beyond setting a good example letting a species die out is immoral especially when we have the resources and capability to protect them, but how can you end a program knowing that that was the lifeline of one of our unique species?

__ Law __ The law that deals directly with this issue is the environmental act of 1973. This law intent was to “halt and reverse the threat of species extinction, whatever the coast.” (Tennessee valley authority vs Hill) In this situation the act has been failing to reverse the extinction, much less stop, of Red Wolves.
