In 2005, Wyoming grizzly bears reached the recovery threshold provided within the Endangered Species Act. Yet despite the backstops and tripwire mechanisms available to protect recovered species from declining into dangerous territory, they still remain on the endangered species list, even though there are now 500 more grizzly bears than originally required.
