What exactly is the goal here? And where do you think the "buffer zone" would stop?

This is a tricky legal maneuver. It’s basically assuming federal regulation over state land. Something we historically don’t like in this country. This would be seen as federal overreach and worsen relationships when it comes to wildlife management. Like it or not, it’s a states rights issue. I haven’t had much confidence in the states ability to manage wolves soundly and ethically, but I do believe they are slowly trending in the right direction.
