Yellowstone Grizzlies back on Endangered Species list.

After a long court battle by the Center and allies, a judge returned federal protections to Yellowstone grizzly bears last year, just in time to save them from Wyoming's trophy hunt.
And this month the U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service officially "relisted" these iconic predators under the
Endangered Species Act.
"All grizzlies need Endangered Species Act protections until they're truly
recovered," said the Center's Andrea Santarsiere. "We'll keep fighting for
these bears until that day."
