Wyoming keeping a not-so-open mind about grizzlies

QUOTABLE:
 
"We're not interested in grizzly bears occupying new habitat except in areas where they already are. Socially acceptable habitat would be areas where grizzlies already occupy. We're not interested in expansion. We're maxed out on grizzly bears already.”"
 
Brian Nesvik of the Wyoming Game and Fish, a member of the Yellowstone Ecosystem Subcommittee, discussing future expansion of the region's grizzly bear population.
