habitat of pine trees that are at least thirty, if not sixty, years old, in
which they build nests and forage for insects. The population of this
bird decreased substantially as pine forests were destroyed by clearcutting. The U.S. secretary of the interior has named the red-cockaded
woodpecker an endangered species. The U.S. Forest Service manages
federal forests and is charged with duties to provide recreation,
protect wildlife, and provide timber. To accomplish the charge of
providing timber, the Forest Service often leases national forest lands
to private companies for lumbering. When the Forest Service
proposed to lease several national forests in Texas, where the redcockaded woodpecker lives, to private companies for lumbering, the
Sierra Club, an environmental organization, sued. The Sierra Club
sought to enjoin the Forest Service from leasing these national forests
for lumbering. Who wins? Sierra Club v. Lyng, Secretary of
Agriculture, 694 F.Supp. 1260, Web 1988 U.S. Dist. Lexis 9203
