lawsuit seeks more critical habitat for bull trout
Bush had recently cut critical bull trout habitat by 75%. This lawsuit is a response to that move.

www.wilderness-sportsman.com

"PORTLAND, Ore. - Two Montana conservation groups have filed a lawsuit demanding the Bush administration restore cutbacks in critical habitat for the bull trout, a threatened species whose demands for clean and cold water conflict with logging and mining.

The lawsuit was filed Thursday in U.S. District Court by the Alliance for the Wild Rockies and the Friends of the Wild Swan.


It is the latest development in a seven-year struggle over how to rebuild populations of the bull trout in five Western states."
