If you are interested in hearing directly and commenting in person, the LAST meeting is being held in Pinetop 9/26 4-7PM.
You can see the video being presented at:
Here are the proposed changes in a nutshell:
Wolves are currently restricted to the Blue Range Wolf Recovery Area. Any wolf leaving the BRWRA is required to be captured and returned into the BRWRA. The proposal removes this requirement and allows wolves to naturally disperse into the Mexican Wolf Experimental Population Area which is all lands south of I-40 and north of I-8.
Additional release sites will include ALL of the Sitgreaves National Forest and the Payson, Pleasant Valley and Tonto Ranger Districts of the Tonto National Forest (that's 4A, 4B, 22 and 23).
Extend the MWEPA from I-8 on the south down to the Mexican border.
