Important Lynx Information Secured Through Freedom of Information Act Lawsuit

August 20, 2010

Cottonwood settled a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit against the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service regarding lynx critical habitat.

The information was later cited by the Ninth Circuit in our victory that ensured protections for 12 million acres of lynx critical habitat in Montana, Idaho and Wyoming.
