The former owner of a Michigan dam is on the hook for roughly $120 million sought by the state for environmental damage when the structure failed after days of rain in 2020, a judge said. But it’s not known how the state will ever collect: Lee Mueller has filed for bankruptcy protection in Nevada.
“There isn’t that kind of money anywhere,” Mueller’s attorney, Troy Fox, said.
Wildlife officials across the Great Lakes are looking for spies to take on an almost impossible mission: stop the spread of Asian carp.
Over the past five years, agencies such as the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and Minnesota DNR have employed a new seek-and-destroy strategy that uses turncoat carp to lead them to the fish’s hot spot hideouts.

New Mexico’s top prosecutor is going after landowners who he says are illegally and unconstitutionally depriving the public of access to stretches of one of the state’s most well-known rivers.

Birdwing butterflies are among the rarest and largest to grace the planet, their 10-inch (25.4-centimeter) wingspans flapping through the rainforests of Southeast Asia and Australia. Their sheer size can make them hard to miss.
But the U.S. attorney’s office in Brooklyn says Charles Limmer made tens of thousands of dollars over the past year by illegally trafficking flying insects, including endangered birdwings – whose numbers have fallen because of diminishing habitat and illegal poaching.

Cell phone video that a game warden said showed a hunter petting an illegally shot and injured deer, and saying “good boy” before killing the animal, has raised calls from wildlife advocates for animal cruelty charges.
But Vermont’s animal cruelty law does not apply to activities regulated by the Vermont Fish and Wildlife Department, including hunting and trapping, officials said. The 21-year-old hunter shown in the video is facing a slew of deer poaching and other charges from incidents in October and November of 2022, including hunting while his license was revoked.
