A Washington State county is calling for a suspension to a federal program to reintroduce grizzlies in the Northern Cascades — again.
For the second time since 2019, Chelan County officials pushed back against a joint National Park Service and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service effort to bring the apex predators to the region’s national park.
“This is frustrating, because the federal government pursued this effort only a few years ago,” said Chelan County Commissioner Tiffany Gering at a December meeting, according to the Seattle Times.
