The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) is publishing a final rule in the Federal Register to reinstate the regulatory protections under the Endangered Species Act of 1973 for the gray wolf (Canis lupus) in most of the Northern Rocky Mountains (NRM).
This administrative procedure is a restatement in
regulation in order to comply with the District of Montana court
order dated August 5, 2010.
In order to enforce the court order, this final rule corrects the gray wolf listing for the northern half of Montana, the northern panhandle of Idaho, the eastern third of Washington and Oregon, and north-central Utah as endangered, and reinstates the former special rules designating the gray wolf in the remainder of Montana and Idaho as nonessential experimental populations.

Because ESA protections were not removed in Wyoming
by our April 2, 2009, final delisting rule, Wyoming is not impacted
by this final rule.
This action is publishing in the Federal Register on Tuesday, October 26, 2010.
