the United States, and one in the
northern portion of the Sierra Madre
Occidental in Mexico, across an
adequate ecological and geographic
range of representation within each
population. The strategy involves
carefully managing the captive-breeding
program, releasing Mexican wolves from
the captive-breeding program into the
wild, and translocating Mexican wolves
from the MWEPA to Mexico, to ensure
two genetically and demographically
viable populations are extant in the wild
for redundancy. In order to achieve the
genetic criteria for downlisting and
delisting the Mexican wolf in this Plan,
the states of New Mexico and Arizona,
and the Mexican government, will
determine the timing, location and
circumstances of releases of wolves into
the wild within their respective states,
and Mexico, from the captive
population, with the Service providing
collaborative logistical support and
facilitation of those recovery actions.
Under this strategy, Mexican wolves
will be managed to achieve an average
population size, with an upper
population size management boundary
applied to the MWEPA that would
allow all forms of management to ensure
that population growth does not
continue unchecked. The population in
Mexico will not be managed with an
upper boundary. Another key
component of the strategy includes
working with Federal, State, Tribal, and
local partners, and the public, to
improve Mexican wolf tolerance on the
landscape.

were donated by the Hubbell family to
the National Park Service in
approximately 1967, and are believed to
have been displayed in the Trading Post
Rug Room by Roman Hubbell. The
human remains consist of one human
skull of indeterminate age and sex. No
known individual was identified. No
associated funerary objects are present.

• Hubbell Trading Post National
Historic Site may proceed with the
agreed-upon transfer of control of the
