Plan to relocate grizzlies to Idaho and Montana
The Interior Department confirms a final plan to move at least 25 grizzlies, many from Canada, into federal wilderness areas across Idaho and western Montana. First bears not expected before summer 2002, with funding and regional opposition from Idaho and Montana officials and ranchers. Governor Kempthorne plans a potential lawsuit to block the move. Senator Crapo demands local control only.
