JACKSON — A legal spat that will determine whether wildlife managers can dispatch cattle-killing grizzly bears in the Bridger-Teton National Forest’s Upper Green River area will now be decided in Wyoming. Intervenors in a case that pits environmental advocacy groups against the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service asked U.S. District Court Judge Amit Mehta whether he would transfer the complaint from his Washington, D.C., courtroom to the U.S. District Court in Wyoming. Last week Mehta granted that request. “Plaintiffs attempt to nationalize the controversy here, asserting that it involves a threatened species, the grizzly bear, that is protected under the Endangered Species Act,” Mehta wrote in a Nov. 28 order. “But, as defendants correctly point out, the mere fact that a case involves a protected species does not transform a local controversy into one of national significance.
