Grizzlies in Idaho

Most ranchers in Idaho do not want grizzly bears to disappear in the state. Many grew up in open spaces, and they love nature.
However, they have a direct ask to move grizzly bears from federal management (under the Endangered Species Act) to state wildlife agencies. Most bears do not cause problems, but when one does, the ability to work and set policy with those who live in Idaho is much more effective than relying on those that live on the other side of the country.
