		Gene Kira on Defenders of Wildlife and Longliners
		Defenders of Wildlife is a large non-government organization or “NGO” based in Washington, D.C., that busies itself by promoting all kinds of conservation programs around the world.
		I was not pleased by the Defenders of Wildlife position, but I considered it a mild threat, since they have in the past concerned themselves mainly with such things as selling $25 “Adopt-A-Wolf” memberships and---until about a year and a half ago--have had virtually no part in the bitter Mexican fisheries battles going back decades.

	Defenders of Wildlife v. Norton
		Defenders claims that "the best scientific evidence" available on the lizard and its habitat demonstrates the presence of as many as four of the five statutory factors indicating that a species is either threatened or endangered and thus eligible for ESA protection.
		Defenders argue, however, that if the lizard' s private land habitat constitutes "a significant portion of its range" and its survival there, as Defenders allege, is in jeopardy, the ESA requires the Secretary to designate the lizard for protection.
		Defenders takes a more quantitative approach to the phrase, arguing that the projected loss of 82% of the lizard' s habitat in this case constitutes "a substantial portion of its range." Appellants then cite to other cases in which courts found listing of species warranted after the loss of even smaller amounts of habitat.
