Hunter Nation Webinar Highlights Growing Demand to Delist the Gray Wolf

By Hunter Nation | May 21, 2026 |

Hunter Nation is pushing for gray wolf delisting and the return of wildlife management authority to the states. Unmanaged wolf populations are impacting deer and elk herds, livestock operations, pets, and rural communities across the Midwest and West. Conservation depends on balanced, science-based predator management that protects both wildlife and hunting traditions. Through legislation, advocacy, and public engagement, Hunter Nation continues fighting to ensure rural Americans and state wildlife professionals—not activist lawsuits—shape the future of wolf management.

What the Utah Wolf Incident Reveals About State Wildlife Management

By Hunter Nation | March 27, 2026 |

In northern Utah, the removal of three wolves highlights the critical role of state authority in wildlife management. Bound by strict geographic and legal distinctions, officials acted to prevent predator expansion and protect livestock and game populations. This moment underscores the importance of local control over distant federal oversight. When states are empowered to act, they can balance conservation with the needs of rural communities, ensuring wildlife management remains practical, responsive, and grounded in real conditions.

Hunter Nation: Governor Evers’ Wolf Plan Represents Overreach and a Betrayal of Wisconsin Citizens

By Hunter Nation | August 21, 2025 |

Hunter Nation is leading the charge to get the gray wolf removed from the Endangered Species List, with management being returned to each state, with no judicial review. A key component of that is no judicial review. For decades we have seen the damage the well funded anti-hunting Left can do with lawfare. All they do is find a liberal, activist judge who will agree with their woke, anti-science approach to conservation, so they can pick the winners and losers, regardless of data and science. While the Left’s agenda favors the wolf, it has, and is destroying wildlife herds everywhere they roam unmanaged! This destruction includes plummeting populations of deer, elk, moose and more. The livelihood of ranchers and farmers are being threatened as unmanaged wolves kill and harass their livestock. The number of wildlife and livestock deaths are only part of the equation. The harassment of those not killed leads to plummeting recruitment numbers with less offspring being born. Eventually, there won’t be enough game to hunt and are rural economies will crumble.

Wolves Off the Endangered List? Inside the Heated Debate on Capitol Hill

By Hunter Nation | March 27, 2025 |

The future of the gray wolf took center stage on Capitol Hill as lawmakers debated whether the species still belongs on the Endangered Species Act list. During a heated March 25, 2025, hearing, the House Committee on Natural Resources examined H.R. 845, a bill that would delist the gray wolf and return management to state wildlife agencies.

At the heart of the debate is a fundamental question: should federal protection continue indefinitely, or should conservation success be recognized by letting states lead science-based wildlife management?
