Bear State

Sen. Cynthia Lummis of Wyoming spearheaded a letter asking key Senate Democrats to hold an “immediate” hearing on the Grizzly Bear State Management Act of 2021, which would direct the Interior Department to remove the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem grizzlies from the endangered species list.

“The Grizzly Bear State Management Act is essential to ensuring the recovery of the GYE grizzly is a happy conservation success story, not a grisly failure,” reads the letter obtained by The Washington Times.

State park staffers were scouring the area Monday looking for the bear, state Fish and Game spokesman Ken Marsh said.
