Cascadia Wildlands V. Woodruff, Erick A. Valencia
Cascadia Wildlands V. Woodruff, Erick A. Valencia
Public Land & Resources Law Review
Predator management has long been a source of contention among the general public, and few predators have had a more polarizing effect on the public than wolves. Cascadia Wildlands v. Woodruff is yet another example of the tension between conservationists and private interests.

The district court determined that Wildlife Services had acted arbitrarily and vacated Wildlife Services’s FONSI and EA.
