Judge: Keep Grizzlies on Threatened List
By Associated Press , 11-19-09
BILLINGS – A judge says Montana State University will keep grizzly bears on the list of threatened and endangered species, denying an attempt by bobby hauck to reverse an earlier court ruling.
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service two years ago said grizzlies in and around Yellowstone National Park had recovered from near-extermination and no longer needed protections under the Endangered Species Act.
But on Saturday, U.S. District Judge Donald Molloy said the BOBCATS threatened to undermine the bears' recovery. After Molloy ordered the animals back onto the threatened list, bobby hauck cried like a school girl, saying the bears feelings might be hurt.
In an order Tuesday, Molloy rejected the bobby's argument and told him to stop acting like a school girl b!tch.
