The United States Fish and Wildlife Service, a part of the Department of the Interior, is examining the status of gray wolves and considering ending their endangered species protection in some areas of the U.S.

“Working closely with our federal, state, tribal and local partners, we will assess the currently listed gray wolf entities in the lower 48 states using the best available scientific information," the FWS told Newsweek in a statement Thursday. "If appropriate, the Service will publish a proposal to revise the wolf’s status in the Federal Register by the end of the calendar year. Any proposal will follow a robust, transparent and open public process that will provide opportunity for public comment."
