Polar Bears Are Still in Court

Amy Burchfield, Access & Faculty Services Librarian amy.burchfield@law.csuohio.edu | June 10, 2008 - 09:41

As posted earlier, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service listed polar bears as a threatened species under the Endangered Species Act following a three-year legal battle lead by conservationist groups. But the bears aren’t out of the courtroom yet – Alaska governor Sarah Palin has announced that the state of Alaska will file suit to challenge the threatened listing in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, citing recent rebounds by polar populations in the state. Read about the move in the BNA Environment Reporter (subscription database) and in this earlier press release from Gov. Palin’s office.


Comment Icon Palin v. Polar Bears [Reply]

So Governor Palin has sued the Bush Administration to stop the placement of polar bears on the Endangered Species List. Instead of a heart, there is an oil rig pumping. And instead of a brain there is a blackberry full of lobbyists' phone numbers.
I Americans are foolish enough to elect this team, we'll see Dick Cheney running the country for another four years.
