Rep. Bentz Remarks Regarding the Damages of the Grey Wolves Inflict

Published | Video Starts at 03:12

In a time when even the president is concerned about beef prices, these losses affect everyone by causing a reduction in the size of America's cattle herd and of course, their productivity. In recognition of this damage caused by the wolf, Laws have been enacted in the some in the big beautiful bill and some at the state level to try to bring at least some ESA reimbursement equity into play by providing some payment to the owners for the death of cattle caused by wolves. But these programs come nowhere close to offsetting the very real loss. And I can assure you the rancher would be absolutely happier if he or she could completely avoid these losses that lead to asking for justice. (03:12–03:26)
