  • Petition to List the Mexican Gray Wolf, Canis Lupis Baileyi, As an Endangered Subspecies Or Distinct Population Segment Under the U.S
    PETITION TO LIST THE MEXICAN GRAY WOLF, CANIS LUPIS BAILEYI, AS AN ENDANGERED SUBSPECIES OR DISTINCT POPULATION SEGMENT UNDER THE U.S. ENDANGERED SPECIES ACT Center for Biological Diversity August 11, 2009 August 11, 2009 Mr. Ken Salazar Secretary of the Interior Office of the Secretary Department of the Interior 18th and “C” Street, N.W. Washington, D.C. 20240 The Center for Biological Diversity, Michael J. Robinson and Noah Greenwald hereby formally petition to list the Mexican gray wolf (Canis lupis baileyi) as an endangered subspecies or distinct population segment pursuant to the Endangered Species Act, 16 U.S.C. §§ 1531 et seq. This petition is filed under 5 U.S.C. § 553(e) and 50 C.F.R. § 424.14 (1990), which grants interested parties the right to petition for issuance of a rule from the Assistant Secretary of the Interior. Petitioners also request that critical habitat be designated for the Mexican gray wolf concurrent with its listing, pursuant to 16 U.S.C. § 1533(a)(3)(A), 50 C.F.R. § 424.12, and pursuant to Section 553 of the Administrative Procedures Act, 5 U.S.C. § 553. Petitioners understand that this petition action sets in motion a specific process placing definite response requirements on the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) and very specific time constraints upon those responses. This petition presents evidence that the Mexican gray wolf merits protection as a separate subspecies or as a distinct population segment under the Endangered Species Act. Petitioner: Center for Biological Diversity. Center for Biological Diversity (“Center”) is a non-profit, 501(c)(3), international conservation organization based in Tucson, Arizona with over 220,000 members and online activists.
