Hunter Nation Founder – Keith Mark Supports Trust the Science Act

Congresswoman Lauren Boebert stated, “The gray wolf is fully recovered, should remain delisted in the lower 48 states, and states should determine how to manage their local gray wolf populations. For too long, farmers and ranchers have been powerless to defend their livestock from gray wolf attacks. The Trust the Science Act empowers states and puts people ahead of violent predators. We need to actually analyze the data objectively instead of letting Endangered Species Act listing decisions be made by leftist activists.”

Congressman Tom Tiffany said, “It’s a scientific fact that the gray wolf has recovered well past its recovery goal. Saying otherwise undermines the purpose of the Endangered Species Act. This is a true recovery success story, and it's past time to give states the reins to control their wolf populations.”

Keith Mark, President and Founder of Hunter Nation, said, “On behalf of Hunter Nation and our thousands of members in every state, I want to express our full support for the 'Trust the Science' Bill just introduced by Reps. Lauren Boebert (CO) and Tom Tiffany (WI) that would remove the gray wolf from the list of endangered and threatened wildlife under the Endangered Species Act of 1973. The gray wolf reintroduction project was wildly successful. Long ago, the gray wolf populations far exceeded all markers that had been set to determine a successful recovery. The gray wolf populations have now exploded past those goals to the detriment of all other wildlife populations, and are now a threat to livestock, pets, and humans. The 'Trust the Science' bill will be following one of the core tenants of the North American Model of Wildlife Conservation: 'Scientific management is the proper means for wildlife conservation.' Hunter Nation applauds and supports Reps. Boebert and Tiffany and all others that support this needed legislation.”

Don Peay, Founder of Sportsmen for Fish and Wildlife, said, “For everyone who loves wildlife, it’s critical each state can manage wolves to protect herds of whitetail, elk, moose, big horn sheep, and all other wildlife.”
