SCI Enters Grizzly Delisting Lawsuit
Safari Club International and the Safari Club International Foundation will represent the hunting community in defending against a lawsuit that challenges the delisting of the grizzly bear in the Yellowstone area of Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming. On November 7th, Judge Edward J. Lodge of the U.S District Court in Idaho granted SCI’s request to participate as “amicus curiae” (friend of the court). The Court chose to allow SCI to participate as amicus, rather than as an intervenor, to allow SCI to help the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and the states of Wyoming and Idaho, defend the FWS’s decision to delist the recovered grizzly bears of the Yellowstone area. SCI’s goal is to prevent the grizzly bear from being returned to the ESA list. An ESA listing deprives the states of their management authority, including their ability to prevent adverse impacts on ungulate populations and to allow sustainable hunting in the future. Gaining “amicus” status allows SCI to emphasize the importance of basing wildlife management on science and to voice the interests of the hunting community on the recovery of predator species.
