ACTION: Notice of availability:
Conservation assessment.
SUMMARY: We, the U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service (Service), announce the
availability of the Mexican Wolf
Conservation Assessment (assessment).
The assessment provides scientific
information relevant to the conservation
of the Mexican wolf (Canis lupus
baileyi) in Arizona and New Mexico as
a component of the Service’s gray wolf
(Canis lupus) recovery efforts. Not
required by the Endangered Species Act
(Act), the assessment is a nonregulatory
document that does not require action
by any party.
ADDRESSES: An electronic copy of the
assessment is on our Web site at http:
//www.fws.gov/southwest/es/Library/.
You may also obtain a paper copy by
contacting Maggie Dwire, by U.S. mail
at U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, New
Mexico Ecological Services Field Office,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Listed Entity
The Mexican wolf was listed as an
endangered subspecies of gray wolf in
1976 (41 FR 17736, April 28, 1976). In
1978, the Service listed the gray wolf
species in North America south of
Canada as endangered, except in
Minnesota where it was listed as
threatened (43 FR 9607, March 9, 1978).
The 1978 rangewide listing of the gray
wolf species subsumed the subspecies
listing; however, we stated in the
preamble to the rule that the Service
would continue to recognize the
PO 00000
Frm 00174
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
24741
Mexican wolf as a valid biological
subspecies for purposes of research and
conservation (43 FR 9607). After the
1978 listing of the gray wolf in the U.S.
Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), the
50 CFR 17.11(h) List of Endangered and
Threatened Wildlife did not explicitly
refer to an entity called the ‘‘Mexican
wolf.’’ Due to the Mexican wolf’s
previous listed status as a subspecies,
we have continued to refer to the gray
wolf in the southwestern United States
as the ‘‘Mexican wolf.’’ Today, the gray
wolf has been delisted in Idaho and
Montana and portions of Oregon,
Washington, and Utah (74 FR 15123,
April 2, 2009). It is listed as threatened
in Minnesota and remains endangered
throughout the remaining coterminous
United States and Mexico, except where
designated as nonessential experimental
populations (63 FR 1752, January 12,
1998, and 74 FR 15123).
Background
The conservation and recovery of
species are primary goals of the
Service’s endangered species program.
The Mexican wolf historically inhabited
the southwestern United States and
portions of Mexico until it was virtually
eliminated in the wild by private and
governmental predator eradication
efforts in the late 1800s and early to
mid-1900s. Conservation and recovery
efforts to ensure the survival of the
Mexican wolf were initially guided by
the 1982 Mexican Wolf Recovery Plan
(U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service 1982)
(recovery plan), which recommended
the establishment of a captive breeding
program and the reintroduction of
Mexican wolves to the wild. Both of
these recommendations have been
implemented. Today an international
captive breeding program houses more
than 300 wolves, and a wild population
of approximately 42 wolves (as of the
official 2009 end-of-year count) inhabits
Arizona and New Mexico.
Although the 1982 recovery plan was
instrumental in guiding the inception of
the Mexican wolf program in the
southwest, the plan requires updating to
provide current guidance for the
reintroduction and recovery effort. We
have initiated revisions to the 1982
recovery plan, but have been unable to
finalize a revision due to various
constraints. We are working to resolve
these constraints to reinitiate a full
revision of the recovery plan, and are
undertaking this conservation
assessment as an interim step.
This assessment provides the type of
information typically contained in a
recovery plan, including the listing
history of the Mexican wolf and gray
wolf, current species’ biology and
