Proposed Grizzly Bear Listing Change: Impacts and Insights for Landowners
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) is proposing revisions to the listing of grizzly bears in the lower 48 states, retaining their threatened status under the Endangered Species Act while designating a distinct population segment (DPS).
According to the proposed rule, published January 15, 2025 on the Federal Register, the proposal includes provisions to allow ranchers and state agencies to address human-bear conflicts, including limited lethal control and relocation of bears. The public comment period on the proposal closes March 17, 2025.
Join WLA policy and working wild challenge field staff to discuss this rule, the current listing status, and challenges and solutions to reduce grizzly conflicts in this webinar.

Measuring nature’s benefits: A wetland ecosystem services tool for Prairie Canada
People derive many benefits from nature. These benefits, which are sometimes referred to as ecosystem services, are crucial to human wellbeing, including in the context of mitigation of the dual crises of global climate change and biodiversity loss. Researchers at Ducks Unlimited Canada’s Institute for Wetland and Water-fowl Research have developed a tool to quantify carbon, biodiversity, water regulation and nutrient retention ecosystem services from wetlands in Prairie Canada. This tool allows us to quantify and communicate the benefits of prairie wetland conservation and learn about synergies and trade-offs amongst ecosystem services.
