...cantankerous philosopher who wrote Playing God in Yellowstone, thinks the U.S. has a moral obligation to return wolves to the park. But the wolves' most effective ally may be Renee Askins, 30, of Moose, Wyo., a wildlife ecologist who stumps for an advocacy group she founded called the Wolf Fund...

McClure has a problem, which is that wolves have been sighted frequently in central Idaho. If packs from Canada establish themselves in Idaho, as they have in Montana's Glacier National Park, they will be protected as an indigenous endangered species. Instead, McClure's plan would de-list wolves immediately, and let state game laws treat them as predators, outside designated havens in Idaho's Selway-Bitterroot Wilderness and in Glacier and Yellowstone parks. Environmental groups...
