Melissa L. Martinez, Manager Red Wolf Continued from front page efforts by federal authorities to shrink the territory of the wild group in North Carolina were a violation of law. The judge ruled U.S. Fish and Wildlife also violated the Endangered Species Act by authorizing private landowners to kill the canine predators even if they weren t threatening humans, livestock or pets. The debate over red wolf protections could take on new dimensions with the discovery on Galveston. Sutherland said the Galveston canines have effectively quashed a decades-old impression that red wolves were a feckless predator overwhelmed by the numerical superiority of coyotes. He adds that the Galveston group has DNA that can t be found in the animal s captive population. From a practical conservation biology standpoint, these animals have special DNA and they deserve to be protected, he said, explaining that conservation easements that restrict development along parts of the Gulf Coast are an essential first step. A spokesman for U.S. Fish and Wildlife said the agency is unable to comment during the partial government shutdown. The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department said in a statement that the Galveston discovery is interesting, but we do not anticipate any regulatory changes or implications in Texas at this time. Kim Wheeler, executive director of the North Carolina-based Red Wolf Coalition, cautioned that further study of the Galveston pack is needed. We can get excited, but in my mind, we really need to let science do its due diligence to determine what this animal is, she said, noting that red wolves can evoke strong feelings in people with livestock or who have other concerns with their predatory nature. Conservationists, meanwhile, say policymakers need to have a greater appreciation for hybrid animals. When the Endangered Species Act was implemented in the 1970s, conventional wisdom was that hybridization between species such as the wolf and coyote was rare and to be avoided. But experts say the thinking on that has changed. Now we know hybridization is relatively common in natural systems and does not always have negative consequences, but the policy hasn t quite caught up with this notion, Heppenheimer said. Castro Continued from front page not going to his first meeting until 11 a.m. in the morning, Castro added. San Juan Mayor Carmen Yulin Cruz, a well-known Trump critic, said the president doesn t have the moral footing to talk about Puerto Rico. He came here for four hours and threw paper towels at us, she said in reference to his visit in October 2017 after Maria, when he lobbed paper towels to a crowd. If you bring a clown to the White House, you re going to get a circus. Castro, the former housing chief for former president Barack Obama said his background helps him understand the process of recovering from a natural disaster and how to improve on that. This work is nothing new to me, said Castro, who also was mayor of San Antonio, Texas, for five years. The 44-year-old grandson of a Mexican immigrant so far is the only Latino in the Democratic field. Castro s first trip as a presidential candidate comes during the largest government shutdown in U.S. history, with Trump refusing to sign a government funding bill that doesn t include money for a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border. Mayor Cruz said the notion of a border wall was racist and criticized the administration s response to Maria. We were left to die by the U.S. government... and we didn t have to die, she said, noting that an estimated 2,975 deaths have been attributed to the hurricane and its aftermath. Cruz also said she worried that Puerto Rico isn t getting hurricane recovery funds quickly enough as the island continues to struggle in the storm s aftermath. We need all the advocates that are here to go back to the United States and help us get the word out: The money isn t getting to the municipalities, she said. During the summit, Latino Victory Fund President Cristobal Alex said Trump has attacked Latinos, surrounded himself with white nationalists and separated children from their parents at the border. Farmers Continued from front page builders alike wept in gratitude when he signed an executive order in 2017, as one of first official acts of his presidency, directing a rewrite of the wetlands protections. We re going to keep federal regulators out of your stock tanks, your drainage ditches, your puddles and your ponds, Trump told the cheering farmers Monday.
